Twelve Chinese architecture projects completing in the Year of the Tiger
This week China celebrates Chinese New Year. To mark the festivities, Dezeen has rounded up 12 major Chinese architecture projects set to complete in the Year of the Tiger.
DJI Headquarters, Shenzhen, by Foster + Partners
Designed by Foster + Partners, this headquarters for a robotics company will have a pair of towers made of stacked boxed forms connected by a skybridge.
Expressed steel trusses on the buildings eliminate the need for interior columns making it easier for the firm to fly its drones inside, while the bridge will be used to showcase its technology.
The Monolith, Ningbo, by Neri&Hu
Shanghai-based studio Neri&Hu designed a cultural destination in Xiangshan, near the eastern coastal city of Ningbo.
It will be made up of five distinct building complexes including villas, thermal baths, seaside leisure facilities, restaurants, and a chapel (pictured).

Shenzhen East Waste-to-Energy Plant, Shenzhen, by Schmidt Hammer Lassen Architects
The world's largest waste-to-energy power plant will be completed later this year in the mountainous outskirts of Shenzhen. It is being designed by Schmidt Hammer Lassen Architects along with fellow Danish firm Gottlieb Paludan Architects.
Nicknamed the Energy Ring, the circular structure will feature photovoltaic panels across two-thirds of its 66,000-square-metre roof, and is expected to incinerate 5,000 tonnes of rubbish per day.
