KLCC Tower
Even to millions who know little about the Malaysian capital of Kuala Lumpur, its skyline is instantly recognizable — the Petronas Towers, its two most outstanding features, were long the tallest buildings in the world, and their exotic pagoda capitals are impossible to miss. The towers are only one part of a sprawling commercial and hospitality development, the Kuala Lumpur City Center (KLCC), whose latest Arquitectonica-designed addition will make the city’s convention center among the most commodious and sophisticated in East Asia. Directly across from the Petronas Towers, on a narrow wedge of a site, the extension to the convention center (the building’s third to date) appears as a partially fragmented vertical mass, its elevation cut by diagonal crimps to the curtain wall facade.
