Ilham Tower & Gallery, Kuala Lumpur Overview

Nestled in the heart of Kuala Lumpur, the Ilham Tower is the fourth tallest structure of Malaysia. Situated in Jalan Binjai, the 60-storey tower rises to a height of about 899 ft which is a true sight to behold. Designed by Foster+Partners, the iconic tower encompasses residential as well as commercial spaces which truly exude elegance.

The Ilham tower houses a 4-star hotel, art gallery, gift shop, food joints as well as office suites. The tower is extremely famous for Ilham Art Gallery that houses a great collection of contemporary as well as modern art pieces that are a true treat to the eyes. If you are someone who has an eye for the finer things in life, then you must plan a visit to this spectacular façade featuring an impressive spectacle of modern architectural designs. You can opt for guided tours of exhibitions that are hosted inside the Ilham Tower.

Ilham Tower Architecture and Features

Dotting Kuala Lumpur’s skyline, the Ilham Tower features an amalgamation of a stainless steel structure, triangulated sleek glass and greenery. The office suites occupy 29 storeys of the Ilham Tower. The atrium occupies three-storeys with luxury apartments nestled above. The diamond-shaped structure of the tower increases the carpet area and its column-free spaces help to accommodate several functions.

Breathing at a height of about 131 feet, the terrace offers a panoramic view of the city. Further, one can also relish a sumptuous meal at the outdoor restaurant located on the terrace. While the Ilham Tower features a marvellous structure, its design is also sustainable for the environment. The tower is equipped with rainwater harvesting systems, non-chemical water treatment devices, energy-saving lighting and carbon-dioxide sensors which help to monitor air quality.

Ilham Gallery

While the Ilham Gallery houses a fine collection of contemporary and modern art pieces from Malaysia, it also houses a unique collection of art pieces from Southeast Asia. The gallery often hosts exhibitions which attract several patrons of art. Further, corporate events and educational programmes are also hosted at the gallery.

You can purchase souvenirs and antiques from the Ilham Gift Shop which is located adjacent to the gallery. These souvenirs have been crafted by some of the most skilled Malaysian craftsmen, artisans and designers. After enjoying a tour of the gallery, you can also sip a cup of coffee at the adjacent café.
