Entry Description

Situated at a bustling Taipei City intersection, this landmark boasts a diamond-shaped exterior with oblique geometric patterns and light metallic glass, presenting a modern, futuristic aesthetic. Nighttime lighting enhances its minimalist vibe, akin to diamond brilliance, symbolizing a strong corporate identity and eco-friendly ethos. The intricate frame showcases craftsmanship and highlights amenities like an employee restaurant and rooftop garden, while echoing the courtyard's waterfall for a clever, refined design.
