Funky! Awesome! Curvy! Phat! Wow! Oh Shut
up!
Whatever your reaction is, people can tell that you are amazed. Amazed with this tower, Menara Telekom.... |
Soaring up the Kuala Lumpur suburb Kerinchi, at 310 metres and 55 storeys, it is Kuala Lumpur's 3rd tallest and the world's 20th. Its curvy shape which is a major breakthrough of tall building architecture has made lots of eyes wide open. It has slabs at every 5 floors which contains gardens - much like a mini park. Designed by Hijjas Kasturi who also designed Menara Maybank in Kuala Lumpur, it is inspired by the bamboo shoot though many people say it looks much like a sail and this is supported by the name of the place, Pantai, which is beach in Malay. |
Usually, blue skyscrapers refer to the skyscrapers with blue window panes. But this skyscraper is blue all over. Even the helipad. |
