ABSTRACT
Yeang pioneered a radically new climatically
responsive architecture for the tropics which
was to have a global influence on the debate
about an ecologically responsible world
architecture and which challenges the very
notion of an ‘international style’. The
Skyscraper Bioclimatically Considered (1996) sets
out his ideas for a climate-generated architecture
and changed our preconceptions of appro-
priate high-rise building forms for the tropics.
