Ms. Teri Tsang

Director, Hong Kong Studio Lead Benoy

With close to 20 years' professional experience in the West and APAC, Teri’s extensive and diverse portfolio includes award-winning retail, commercial, residential, masterplanning, urban design and transport-oriented developments. Teri brings a creative, multi-disciplinary approach to her projects and marries commercial problem solving with innovative design thinking to create unique solutions. With her international experience and understanding of local nuances, she spearheads ‘glocal’ design thinking at Benoy, adapting international design to local regulations, processes and norms. She has native fluency in English, Cantonese and Mandarin, which allows her to service a broad range of international clients around the region. Teri grounds her designs in a keen awareness of clients’ commercial and strategic needs, resulting in revolutionary projects which deliver social, environmental and economic benefits to some of the region’s biggest developers such as Hongkong Land, Alibaba Group, Ayala Corporation, SM Group and China Resources Land. Following the various stages from design concept through to completion, Teri’s work includes Ningbo New World Plaza, the masterplanning of a 107,000m² mixed-use development, consisting of a K11 Mall, a 250m iconic tower with Grade-A office and the six-star Rosewood Hotel, in one of China’s oldest cities; Pazhou Tower, a new landmark for tech enterprises and an iconic headquarters; Hongkong Land WeCity, a prime commercial complex in Chengdu; and a recent win in Shanghai’s prestigeous West Bund Xuhui District.

Placemaking Forum

The real estate industry faces a pivotal moment as we face new norms brought forth by exceptional circumstances over the past few years. With radical disruptions to the built environment, and to the ways we live, work, and play, how do policymakers in our industry embrace the old and new when building (or rebuilding) strong, healthy cities? What are the indispensable approaches that define green and healthy communities? How do placekeeping and placemaking create more value—financially, socially and environmentally? How does digitalisation transform the ways we create places? The Placemaking Forum will bring together all stakeholders – policymakers, investors, developers, architects, and urban designers – to share insights and explore new and workable solutions for holding and revitalising the social fibre of communities for generations to come.
