Work has started on a trio of interconnected energy-efficient skyscrapers with lush rooftop gardens in bustling Taipei, Taiwan.
The Chinatrust Bank Headquarters will use the latest technologies and design tools to reduce its carbon footprint and optimise passive heating and cooling.
Designed by NBBJ Architects with Fei and Cheng Associates, the complex features a 30-storey building, 21-storey office block and a 10-storey hotel.
Each of the towers will include vertical atriums and rooftop gardens to insulate the buildings, reduce rainwater runoff and mitigate the urban heat island effect.
They are due for completion in 2012.
Thanks for the information.I think that the construction work is pretty impressive as seen in the photograph and it seems that it will be pretty interesting to see the building when it's get completed.
Thanks,
