Abstract
One Peking is a green office tower located at a strategic waterfront site on the Kowloon side of Hong Kong. The building incorporates a range of environmental features such as solar shading, light reflectors and low-E clear glazing, with a triple-glazed, ventilated facade system that ensures maximum user comfort and high energy efficiency. The curviliner south facade is a visual response to context and extends to the top as the supporting structure for the photovoltaic panels, which provide auxiliary power supply to the building.
