Lotus Tower
Sri Lankan and Chinese project teams · Colombo, Sri Lanka · 2019
Lotus Tower introduces a highly visible telecommunications and observation structure to Colombo's skyline. A slender shaft supports a large lotus-inspired upper body containing visitor facilities. The project combines infrastructure with public spectacle, making the distinction between the city seen from above and the tower viewed from surrounding streets part of its architectural role. Visiting: The observation deck is ticketed; the tower is visible across Colombo and lit at night.
