The is the headquarters of Cheung Kong holidays (CHL) building is place to multinational banking firms & the coloured lights during the light show at night.

When relating this to the Feng Shui we can see that the Cheung Kong Centre sits right between the Bank of China Tower and the HSBC building – caught between the negative energy radiated by the former and the deflecting cannons by the latter. That meant that the designers of Cheung Kong Centre had to be extra careful when it came to managing feng shui.

In the end it was a square shape with a reflective glass exterior was designed with the orientation that ensured that qi was able to flow smoothly around the building. This reflective glass exterior has the purpose of balancing out the negative energy in the environment and to immunize the building against bad qi. Although the building is 283 meter high, this was actually a restricted height, reinforcing the principle of harmonizing with the environment rather than competing with its more ostentatious neighbours.
