One Peking is located near the waterfront in Tsim Sha Tsui. Developed by Glorious Sun Group, it overlooks the magnificent skyline of Hong Kong and Victoria Harbour.

The external envelop of the tower is a triple-glazed walling system with aluminum sunshades as light reflectors and motorized blinds installed within the glazing cavity with the blade angles automatically controlled by computerized sensors tracking the position of the sun.

The curvilinear south facade above the roof profile of Hong Kong Cultural Centre across the road gives the reflection of a rising sail. The energy generated from the building's integrated photo-voltaic panels is used for the powering of motorized blinds in the active facade which is totally self-sufficient.

The distinctive profile of One Peking makes it an instantly recognizable landmark, but it is one that maintains dialogue with history, with its neighbours and with the city's natural attributes. With its innovative design and cutting-edge building technology, the building has won a number of awards including Hong Kong Institute of Architects Annual Awards 2003 and Quality Building Award 2004.
