Later works – Rudolph’s International Impressions, Intiland Tower

In his later works, with the revival of classical architecture, Rudolph’s works begin to shift from the projects in the United States to projects abroad. During this time, he strived to use materials and building designs that would incorporate his signature brutalist style, but also reflect the unique and work to enhance the region of the building’s location. He brought his vision and modernist style to large-scale projects in Singapore, Hong Kong, and Indonesia.

The Wisma Dharmala Sakti, later deemed the “Intiland Tower” has an abstract post modern design. It’s located in Jakarta, Indonesia, and was designed with environmental sustainability in mind. During the making of the building Rudolph was quoted as saying, “Traditional Indonesian architecture offers a wide variety of solutions to the problems of a hot and humid climate. The unifying element in this rich diversity is the roof.” He strived to make sustainable structures that appropriated and complimented the regional spaces in which they were built.
