Project overview
Once the tallest building on Earth, Taipei 101 is shaped like a stalk of bamboo — a form drawn from both nature and traditional pagoda architecture. It pioneered the use of a massive tuned mass damper, a 660-tonne steel sphere suspended near the top that sways to counter typhoons and earthquakes.
