North Point Government Offices l HONG KONG l 95m l 25fl

North Point Goverment Offices
Hong Kong, China


HEIGHT: 95m
FLOORS: 25 floors
COMPLETION: 1998
ARCHITECT: Simon Kwan & Associates Ltd. [/I]

Stone is used at certain spandrel areas of the unitized curtainwall with the vertical joints of the stone being staggered.
This is an office building for the Hong Kong SAR Government.
Due to acoustic requirements, 32mm silver reflective on clear & on green insulated vision glass is used on the unitized curtainwall facing the sea & the highway (Island Eastern Corridor).








Entrance section.






Building redering.

With the exception of the bottom, there's nothing special. 6.5/10

Quite nice, I like the curve and the straight edge with the indentation, as well as a colour, but as Sher said, it just isnt charming enough - just decent.

7.5
