• About Firm
  Founded by Torquil McIntosh and Simon Mitchell, Sybarite’s mission for the last two decades has been to create connected spaces, woven with narrative and architectural and design codes. The multidisciplinary studio has built a credible reputation for luxury retail and hospitality projects and adeptly revitalised brand environments on both small and large sales, resulting in substantial commercial success for notable international developers, operators and conglomerates in the luxury sector.

SKP Chengdu is a first for luxury retail master planning and constitutes a new blueprint for subterranean mixed-use retail and lifestyle. According to the SKP retail operators, the sunken department stores and retail and hospitality avenues were designed as a brand-new model to break new ground and stand as a diversified shopping destination for fashion and future retail trends globally. SKP Chengdu forges a new blueprint for retail master planning in a new era for sustainable retail developments in China, focusing on building communities.
