When designing the Bank of China tower in Hong Kong, traditional Chinese feng shui architectural philosophy was not taken into consideration during the design process. Because of this, some of the adjoining businesses have closed their doors, and some of the adjacent buildings have constructed what are called negative energy deflectors and aimed them at the tower. This has resulted in some difficulties for the building.
Despite this, the tower has maintained its status as a well-known and recognisable structure in Hong Kong, and its one-of-a-kind architecture continues to win the praise and admiration of many.
