Hong Kong Buildings (2007)

Buildings that makes use of glass and reflection facade usually brings out some character out of the structure. Depending on the the angularity of the surfaces reflected light and the colors of its surrounding, it provides the contrast in color and tone of the overall building depite it being similar in color scheme to begin with. It is both a clever and effective way of enhancing the effective aesthetics of a building.

The last one in yellow and cyan tint is the hotel we stayed in called Ibis Hotel. We prefer the one in Bangkok.

Hong Kong Building (2007)


This time we came across a hole'ly and another square'ly building. The combination of the sheer height of the building and the aligned circled or square windows created a stunning visual effect of reaching for the sky.
The recessed space created in the squared window building creates a hollow that casts upon a shadow depending on the position of the sun (in the day) and moon (moonlight at night).
That's my own interpretation. =)

Hong Kong Buildings (2007)


Build with perfect symmetry. This building stood out because of its simplicity in design. Horizontal lines seperates the levels of the building and the vertical lines seperates the windows horizontally. Every window is identical with the four corners slightly curved. The vertical edges of the building are also rounded . Shots taken from across the street.

Other than Hong Kong's spectacular night scenes, the city is also densly packed with beautiful buildings. This one here is a church from bottom up.

Hong Kong Night Scene (2007)

Some very old flats in Hong Kong. When I look up the buildings, the flash lights on the left brightens the otherwise dull part of the flats. Lightings in the homes looked like silvery rays decorating the facade in contrast to the dark buildings on the right hand side. So interesting. And there you have. Another night shot. =)
