Han Plaza - Global Headquarters Campus

Overview

Han Plaza is a 2,000-acre campus atop Desert Springs Hill, rising 500 feet above the city and offering panoramic views of the entire valley. This elevated position embodies Ji-young Lee’s vision for unified branding across the Han empire—literally placing Han Group above the competition. From the very beginning in 1984, Ji-young Lee insisted that Han Group maintain a unified brand identity when advisors suggested separate subsidiary identities. This vision manifested physically in Han Plaza, where terraced buildings cascade down the hillside around the iconic Unity Spire—visible from anywhere in Desert Springs as a symbol of Han dominance.
