Poly International Plaza: Design Pays Off
Location: Guangzhou, China
Client: Poly Real Estate Group
Architect: Skidmore, Owings & Merrill
Poly International Plaza comprises two 150-meter towers. The lattice on the buildings' south side provides shade, lowering air-conditioning bills. Good design also means higher rents—20% more than neighbors' rates.
