Architecture
Taipei 101 is a large scale multiple purpose development on a site area of 30,278 sq. meters, and it is an unusually large and square parcel of prime real estate in the middle of CBD. Major usage of the land is zoned to be for financial industry. In order to provide open space for the public, the construction line has recessed 35 meters to allow for a total of 15,197 sq. meters of open space around the building. Site coverage ratio is only 49.8 %. The main building of the development is an 101 story super high-rise building, average floor plate is 1,391~2,375 sq. meters, and the principal usage is offices for financial institutions. To alleviate wind pressure and to provide the best safety measures and efficient services, a mechanical floor is created with every eight floors of office, totaling 11 mechanical floors in the building. Top of the building is a communication tower that is to provide the best communication facilities.

The building structure is based on steel with reinforced concrete, exterior wall is to be glass curtain wall with double glazed heat reduction clear glass, and the base of the building is using granite.

There are a total of five basement levels, excavated to the construction line, floor plate is as sizable as 24,221 sq. meters. In the foundation lays the ice storage tank to provide for efficient and cost saving air-conditioning system.

Podium has five stories with floor plate of 14,480 sq. meters, and will become the Taipei 101 Shopping Mall. The podium is enclosed by a 42 meter high glass dome that covers a indoor square of 2,865 sq. meters, which will be one of the world's largest, and certainly Taipei's largest indoor public space. The other floors are featured by interesting open hallways that connect all the shops, and the space will be the most superior shopping and leisure space.

Desing Concept
The Spirit of Architecture The greatest challenge in designing a statement building is not the construction technology involved, but how the building reflects the culture in which it functions. The spirit of architecture lies in the balance between local culture and internationalism.

In the West, a tall building demands respect and attention from the spectators. To the Asians, it symbolizes a broader understanding and anticipation of things to come: we "climb" in order to "see further".

The architect of Taipei Financial Center, C.Y. Lee, has found the appropriate and original expressions from oriental elements. The height of Taipei Financial Center is reached one step at a time, like petals of a flower unfolding or sections of a bamboo rising from the ground, and it offers a new perspective to the residents of the city.
