Design

The tower was completed in 2004 and was designed by Pei Cobb Freed & Partners and Haigo Shen & Associates. Inspired by the Bank of China Tower in Hong Kong, it was primarily designed by the same architectural firm. The overall shape of the building represents a water droplet as the principle design concepts. The exterior walls of the building use low-reflective light-blue glass façade, and the selection of building materials is based on environmental protection concepts. [4][5][6][7]
