    This report analyses the performance of Greater China’s Hotel Market Greater China Hotel Report knightfrank.com/research May 2020 GREATER CHINA HOTEL REPORT 2020 OVERVIEW Against the backdrop of a slowing domestic economy, coupled with global economic uncertainties and the protracted China–US trade war, the hotel industry in the Greater China region demonstrated weak performance in 2019. Among all major cities, including Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Hong Kong, the Average Daily Rate (ADR) of five-star hotels shrank, and the occupancy rate dropped in Shanghai, Shenzhen and Hong Kong. Macau still managed a slight increase in ADR, but the occupancy rate fell. The weak growth trajectory of the hotel industry was further dragged down by the COVID-19 outbreak and this is expected to continue in the first half of 2020. In Beijing, the number of tourist arrivals rooms to the market. By the end of 2019, declined, and demand for tourism the number of luxury guest rooms in accommodation weakened in 2019.

  • Landscape Matters: News from Gls at Dumbarton Oaks
    LANDSCAPE MATTERS: NEWS FROM GLS AT DUMBARTON OAKS The program in Garden and Landscape Studies at Dumbarton Oaks was established in 1972 to support advanced scholarship in garden history and landscape architecture, encompassing the study of culturally and artistically significant landscapes around the world from ancient times to the present. The program seeks to deepen the un- derstanding of landscape and gardens as a field of knowledge and research and as a practice carried out by land- scape architects, landscape artists, and gardeners. The activities of the program include residential fellowships, short-term pre-doctoral residencies, one-month research stipends, project grants for field research, public lectures and symposia, and temporary installations of contemporary art as well as the new Mellon Initiative in Urban Landscape Studies. An active publications program produces symposium proceedings, translations of significant texts in a series on the history of gardens and landscape architecture entitled ex horto, and occasional monographs, reprints, and studies in contemporary landscape design. Scholars have access to unparalleled resources, including a vibrant intellectual community, an extensive research library and Rare Book Collection, and the renowned gar- dens of Dumbarton Oaks. We are pleased to share with you the following news about the past academic year, and announcements regarding 2015–16 fellows, fellowship applications, new programs, forthcoming colloquium and symposium, and new pub- lications.

  • Landscape, Art, and Identity
    SAT-A02 ROOM 408A SATURDAY OCT 21 11:00 AM – 12:30 PM America: Landscape, Art, and Identity The representation of Landscape is at the core of American Identity. This presentation will introduce two quintessential American artists, working half a century apart, whose practices are intrinsically tied to a specific American landscape typology, to a specific site, and to the representation of a distinct vision of America. To fully understand the work of these artists and their role in defining American culture and projecting its image - nationally and abroad - requires that we also understand the the ecological and historical context of their practice. Today, Frederic Church’s Olana in the Hudson Valley and Donald Judd’s Chinati Foundation in Marfa, Texas provide audiences with the rare chance to consider these issues from within these ‘outdoor studios or museums’ and through the experience of these distinct, manipulated landscapes. Nelson Byrd Woltz Landscape Architects (NBW) and Sasaki, respectively, have been tasked with creating practical visions for the evolution of these landscapes addressing critical issues. These master plans seek to preserve the cultural essence, physical and historic context, conserve the ecology, and provide an elevated level of access and understanding to visitors and scholars. LEARNING OBJECTIVES PRESENTATION OUTLINE • Learn about two masters of American Art and their • Introduction: The use of master plans as a preservation tool in influence on our understanding of nature and ecology cultural landscapes • Learn

  • KPF Completes Landmark Office Tower in Shenzhen Located in the Houhai District, the China Resources Headquarters Is the Third Tallest Building in the City
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: KPF Completes Landmark Office Tower in Shenzhen Located in the Houhai District, the China Resources Headquarters is the third tallest building in the city. New York, New York – January 3, 2019 – Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates (KPF) is pleased to announce the completion of the China Resources Headquarters, a 400 meter tall commercial office tower located in the Houhai District of Shenzhen. The building anchors the KPF-planned development that stitches together a number of uses – retail, residential, and office amenities – with 2,000 square meters of public space and the city’s greenbelt and waterfront. As a whole, the tower and complex invigorate Shenzhen’s urban fabric while providing one of the country’s premier companies with a visual icon symbolizing its historic growth and prominent stature. The building’s opening was celebrated by representatives from KPF and China Resources, which also celebrated its 80th anniversary. “It was an honor to work on this headquarters tower with China Resources, one of the nation’s oldest and most important companies,” said KPF President James von Klemperer. “The conical tower design shows a geometric boldness that reflects China Resources’ pride in their past and confidence in the future. By marking the skyline, it will be one of the most recognizable buildings of Shenzhen, China’s leading technology city.” Inspired by the shape of the winter bamboo shoot, China Resources Headquarters features a light yet stable tube and diagrid structural system that is expressed in its tapered, sculptural form. Rendered in pre-fabricated column and steel units, the system affords column-free interiors, in turn allowing greater expression of the tower’s radial symmetry and more boutique floorplates as it rises.

  • The Expansive Designs of Landscape Architect Thomas Woltz
    The Expansive Designs of Landscape Architect Thomas Woltz With his highest-profile project to date, the greening of New York City's $15 billion Hudson Yards development, WSJ. Magazine's Design Innovator of 2013 is tapping into the power of a well-designed urban landscape to reveal our shared history—and find a more harmonious future By ALASTAIR GORDON Nov. 6, 2013 BENCH MARK | Landscape architect Thomas Woltz at the Hudson Yards site, where he is responsible for designing a 6.5-acre park atop a $750 million deck, constructed over active train tracks Photography by Adrian Gaut 'I AM ALWAYS LOOKING for the story of a site," says landscape architect Thomas Woltz, while standing at the north end of Manhattan's High Line greenway on West 30th Street and looking out over the 26- acre urban anomaly called Hudson Yards, one of his latest projects. Below him, men in hard hats are erecting scaffolding amid the cacophony raised by backhoes, dump trucks and jackhammers. In this agitated cluster of urban infrastructure, Woltz sees parkland that's just waiting to be nurtured into harmony. "City blocks are like stands of trees; the open areas like meadows; the drainage networks like creeks. These are all complex living systems," says the 46-year-old principal of Nelson Byrd Woltz Landscape Architects (NBW). "Every site, whether an asphalt parking lot in New York or a rain forest in New Zealand, has embedded energies that inform the design process." Landscape architect Thomas Woltz is WSJ. Magazine's Design Innovator of the Year. Hudson Yards is the brainchild of real-estate mogul Stephen Ross, founder and chairman of Related Companies, and this, his latest mega- development, is being hailed as the largest real-estate project in American history.
