Greening a City Icon
The building was used to be an icon of 1980s. In the late 2000s, the owners decided to make significant changes to the building to modernize the Group’s corporate identity. The refurbishment work was completed within two years without moving or transferring any of the building’s tenants, demonstrating to the world that renovating and “greening” an existing office building can be both technically feasible and cost-effective. Most importantly, it successfully preserved an architectural icon within the fabric of the city, while bringing it up to 21st century standards of sustainable design and upgrading its identity.
