Hong Kong – Christie’s, a world-leading art and luxury business, will relocate its Asia Pacific headquarters in 2024 to The Henderson, a striking new urban landmark on Murray Road in Central, Hong Kong designed by Zaha Hadid Architects for Henderson Land Group. With 50,000 square feet of art-inspired space anchoring four storeys within the new tower, Christie’s will be able to provide exceptional service to its clients with its first year-round saleroom and state-of-the-art gallery presence in Asia.
