The grand opening of Galaxy Entertainment Group’s Phase 3 projects, unveiled the exciting new addition to the rapidly expanding integrated resort precinct in Macao, China. Located in the world-renowned entertainment hub of Cotai, Macao, the new landmark destination of Galaxy International Convention Center is comprised of two Andaz hotel towers integrated with 40,000-sqm of flexible MICE Space and a state-of-the-art 16,000-seat Galaxy Arena.

   

Designed by 10 Design, the venue’s organic and bold design of the Convention Center creates a striking contrast with the architecture of the surrounding buildings. The flowing, organic form gives it a sense of movement and energy.

    The latest addition to the Galaxy Integrated Resorts Precinct takes inspiration from the unique vision and identity of the Galaxy Entertainment Group. Inspired by the curves of nature, the building's sculptural form creates a bold and distinctive architectural statement that sets it apart from its surroundings, whilst placing focus on durability, comfort, and wellness.
 

    The vibrant lifestyle hotel, the largest Andaz hotel in the world, presents Old Taipa with a contemporary spin, celebrating both the rich Chinese culture and the international lifestyle of modern Macao. Inspired by the concept of "The Palace Gardens," the two towers feature organic petal forms clad in distinctive gold glass and white vertical fins, a signature of the Galaxy brand. 
    The façade of the podium is a dynamic composition of fluid white forms, providing a striking contrast to the functional rectangular form of the building. Gold and white canopies, that wrap the podium, provide a sense of movement and energy, accentuating the entrances of the arena, exhibition space, and hotel. The façade is further enhanced by integrated, programmable LED lighting and large-scale screens, which enliven the architecture and create a distinctive new presence on the Macao skyline.
