Nice to see a thread here for what I think is a very handsome tower going up in KL.

It has similarities to a lot of buildings, one of the stronger ones I think is the Bank of China building in Hong Kong. Obviously different massing, but the triangular theme and how it cuts into the tower is very complimentary.

^ And I like the subtle Islamic touches at the top. Very Kuala Lumpur: modern, with subtle Islamic flair.

I like this. Looks inspired by HK's (Pei's) Bank of China tower.

Nice design, I really like the way this building mixes the structures and spaces.
