The Concept

The headquarters of the United Overseas Bank (UOB), one of the most prestigious financial groups in Southeast Asia, is situated in Singapore’s Central Business District. It is a futuristic project with two office towers - one 66, the other 38 stories high - and a podium with banking hall. The higher of the two stands 280 meters (919 ft) high, one of the tallest buildings in the Asian region, an integral part of the vibrant, diversified Singapore skyline.
