The C. K. Choi Building is an award-winning building recognized for its leading-edge sustainable design features.〔(UBC press release 1996-10-06 )〕〔(Cascadia Building Council )〕 It is the University of British Columbia's "flagship environmental building"〔Cole and Steiger, p.7〕 in what it calls its ‘living laboratory’, the campus used to showcase "innovative approaches to conserving energy, water and materials, while striving to make positive impacts on the environment."〔(UBC Sustainability )〕〔(The Canadian Encyclopedia )〕 Located in the northwest quadrant of the UBC campus, the building is named after Dr. Cheung-Kok Choi, a businessman and philanthropist in China, Hong Kong and Canada, and a major donor to UBC.〔(IAR ''In Memoriam'' )〕〔(Community Leaders )〕 The C.K. Choi Building was purpose-built as a university office building to house UBC's Institute of Asian Research's five research centres. These focus on China, Japan, Korea, Southeast Asia, and India and South Asia. The "daringly innovative architecture"〔(IAR History )〕 integrates cultural expression, interior and exterior architectural presence, together with environmental features and functions. The five identical curved roof forms reflect the Institute's Asian focus, providing an identifiable focus for each research centre without giving predominance to one culture or centre over another, and provide natural light and natural ventilation to interior spaces.〔(CascadiaBC )〕 ==Institute of Asian Research== (詳細はウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「C.
