Sorry for the late notice. I’m driving upstate and the service is terrible.

The Hongkong and Shanghai Bank

HCSH Building

This revolutionary building comprises of an exoskeleton that allows for separation between patrons and staff. The three towers range from 29 to 44 stories high. There are five sections of floors and several fast elevators the transport employees to these floors. And from there, you can access zig zagging escalators to go into individual offices.

The entire building sits on steel legs allowing for a spacious ten story atrium with sunlight reflected from mirrors above. It is open to the public. Two extremely high elevators produce perfect Feng Shui, sweeping up to look like the whiskers of a dragon. A network of mirrors directs sunlight from the top, allowing for natural light to radiate throughout the entire structure. Sunshades allow for heat during the colder months and in the summer, the air conditioning system uses sea water as the coolant.

This architectural deign allows for extreme flexibility that wouldn’t have been possible through a more traditional structure. They are able to easily reconfigure their floors and add even more depth to the building. It also allows for Feng Shui, a detail that is very important to the culture. And the use of natural resources evolves this design into a modern era.
