#275 l The Summit l HONG KONG l 220m l 65fl

RafflesCity · June 8th, 2003, 12:10 AM

The Summit
Hong Kong, China

HEIGHT: 220m/721 feet
FLOORS: 65 floors
COMPLETION: 2001
ARCHITECT: DLN Architects

41C Stubbs Road is
a high-rise residential building located on a steeply sloping site on Mount Nicholson.
The project brief called for residences aimed at the top end of the Hong Kong market. The generosity of the space standards specified for the project permitted the adoption of a maisonette configuration for all units that is normally not economically realistic in Hong Kong.
The typical units each have a double height living room connected to two floors comprising the remainder of the maisonette. Upper floors are connected to the living room via internal staircases and feature 'minstrel's' galleries overlooking the main voided space.
The elevation of the superstructure on a podium car park that absorbs the fall in the site ensures that even the units on the lowest floors enjoy fine panoramic views.

Now here's a tower that doesn't look like a rocket that's about to take off......instead it looks like the platform beside it !

7/10...Good colors, and I like the slimness. The shape is a bit weird, and too many details on the skyscraper IMO. The side view is great, but not the front view.

Wisma · August 7th, 2003, 10:24 AM

Yeah I like this one a lot!. The tower is slender, the shape is original and looks ok to me.

Awesome 8.5/10

huaiwei · August 28th, 2003, 01:58 PM
