I just wonder why it looks so blank at the back side! Nevertheless, it has given some modern look to the heritage area of Penang :)

Menara UMNO was built in 1998 and Burj al Arab in 1999.

so, if i were you, i would say Burj al Arab is copying Menara UMNO's design:D

Yeah, it's built before Burj al Arab so how could you say they copied?
Anyway i would give it 7/10, looks good with the herritage background. Nice contrast.

This building is another one of Ken Yeang's eco-friendly building, hence the facade. Open spaces, ventilation, louvres for air-flow and ventilation. Also window transpiration shades to minimize direct sunlight heating onto the building and to maximize air-flow around it.
