The Centrium, Skyscraper in Central district, Hong Kong
The Centrium is a 189-metre tower of 41 floors completed in 2001 in Hong Kong's Central district, designed by DP Architects for the Sino Group. Its lower floors hold retail space, the rest is commercial office, with 23,775 square metres of floor area in total. A spire added in 2002 lights up in colours at night.
The building was completed in 2001 as a collaboration between an architecture firm and engineering specialists. An illuminated spire was added a year later, expanding the original design with a new visual feature.
The building shapes the look of Hong Kong's business district with its modern form, reflecting how the city projects economic strength to the world. Its design and appearance speak to the international business culture that fills this area every working day.
The building stands on Wyndham Street in Hong Kong's busy Central area, making it easy to locate within the commercial district. Access is straightforward in this well-connected part of the city.
The Centrium's spire was not part of the original design: it was added in 2002, a year after the tower opened, and lights up in changing colours at night. The building was developed by Sino Group, which held a 70% stake, with Nan Hua China holding the remaining 30%.
