HSBC Building Hong Kong

A 1985 High-Tech headquarters in Central, Hong Kong, exposing its external trusses and service towers.

Modules, prefabrication, and expressed structure create the image of a building assembled like a machine.

The atrium and daylight strategy are integrated with the office-core plan.

It is an early Foster icon and a symbol of Hong Kong’s financial skyline.
