Bank of China Tower
Hong Kong
The Bank of China tower is another I.M. Pei works that was done in 1990 in Hong Kong, China. This is one of the taller pieces of work from Pei that somehow incorporated nature in a building-filled city. He made the sides reflective to where the sky paints across the sides of this huge skyscraper. He still keeps with his geometric design with the overall look of the building and the crossing over on the sides. At night, the building lights up like stars in the sky.
The building is 70 stories tall, which is the tallest building in Hong Kong. Like the Islamic Museum of Art, this building also contains an atrium.The building's design was influenced by the way bamboo was structured. Pei again uses nature in this city structure.
