Guangzhou International Finance Center- WilkinsonEyre

WilkinsonEyre designed a 440-meter tower in Guangzhou and it became one of China’s tallest buildings with its 103 stories. The development is a mixed-use with office space, a luxury hotel, and a high-end restaurant. What I found fascinating about the building is its retail loop that connects with the landscaped central axis and the details of the tower’s crystal form. At nighttime, you see mostly blue and I think it’s such a beautiful variety of blues that shadows the dark background of the sky and space. I feel like it’s a joy to work here as these workers get to see and appreciate the gorgeous architecture inside and outside the building. It was completed in 2010 and has been recognized for the engineering and landmark significance.
