The 76-metre high Innovation Tower of the Hong Kong Polytechnic University was designed by Zaha Hadid, an Iraqi-British architect who, in 2004, became the first female winner of the Pritzker Architecture Prize
"The fluid character of the Innovation Tower is generated through an intrinsic composition of its landscape, floor plates and louvers that dissolves the classic typology of the tower and the podium into an iconic seamless piece. These fluid internal and external courtyards create new public spaces of an intimate scale which complement the large open exhibition forums and outdoor recreational facilities to promote a diversity of civic spaces."
