One Island East, Quarry Bay Hong Kong (China)

Product catalog summary

Project Overview: One Island East is a prominent building in the Taikoo Place Development by Swire Properties Limited, located in Quarry Bay, Hong Kong. Standing at 308 meters, it is the tallest building in the area. The project is divided into two main contracts: the Tower and the Podium.

Key Participants: The project involves several key players including Swire Properties Limited as the owner, Wong & Ouyang (HK) Ltd. as the architect, Hugh Dutton Associates as the design consultant, Arup Facade Engineering as the façade consultant, and Ove Arup & Partners Limited for statics. Gammon Construction Limited is the main contractor, with Josef Gartner & Co. (HK) Ltd. as the subcontractor for the tower curtain wall and podium façade.

Tower Curtain Wall: The tower features a single skin façade with unique design elements such as cantilevered glass panels and vertical laminated glass fins. The façade covers an area of 54,000 m² from the 2nd to the 67th floor, with anodized aluminum cladding on the concrete columns from the 2nd to the 10th floor. The glass used includes insulated glass units (IGU) with various coatings to enhance strength and transparency.

Podium Façade: The podium façade is designed to extend the boundaries of transparent glass walls in Hong Kong. It covers an area of 2,150 m² with a height of 13.6 meters. The structural system relies on vertical glass fins and a horizontal truss made of duplex stainless steel cast elements to support higher wind loads.

Special Features: The tower curtain wall includes vertically expressed aluminum features and vertical laminated glass fins at split mullions. The podium façade features curved glass walls at the building corners and a 42-meter-long footbridge to the adjacent Cornwall House, supported by glass fins and beams.

Materials and Finishes: The project uses high-strength materials such as duplex stainless steel for castings and PVF 2 coatings for aluminum surfaces. The glass specifications include laminated and tempered glass with SGP interlayers for enhanced durability and safety.
