10. Kingkey 100
Height: 1,449 ft Location: Shenzhen, China
Topped out but not yet completed, the tower's fluid shape and reflective skin is evocative of a fountain, connoting the wealth and prosperity springing forth from the economic success of Shenzhen. The reflective outer cladding allows the tower to maintain comfortable temperatures inside and minimize outside heat gain. Kingkey 100 is outfitted with white double silver Low-Eglass used as heat insulation glass on exterior walls, and green plasterboard building material by the German company Knauf for interior decoration.
