Gallery: Stunning Star-Shaped Taiwan T...
Recreational facilities, like a fitness center and pool, would be included in the towers design.
The tower’s form was inspired by Taiwan’s diamond industry, traditional origami, the Eiffel Tower, and the star, which is part of Taiwan’s flag. Combining all of these visual icons together into one building results in a large star-shaped, multi-faceted tower designed to rival Taiwan’s other famous skyscrapers. The eco tower would stand over 350 meters tall and includes offices for Taichung City Government, leisure and recreational spaces, retail and educational centers, and the new Museum of Taichung City Development.
