In the heart of Hong Kong, Lippo Centre, designed by American architect Paul Rudolph, distinguishes itself with its unique and playful design. The building, often referred to as the ‘Koala Tree’ due to its resemblance to koalas climbing a tree, comprises two office towers connected by a large common atrium. At its base, a 4-story retail podium adds to the structure’s functionality. Visitors can explore the bustling retail area and admire the distinctive facade, which has become a notable part of the city’s skyline.
