Gulf Interstate Engineering - Round Office Building

Add caption

Gulf Interstate Engineering occupies an architecturally appealing circular-shaped office building with one section carved out and featuring an ascending-steps-theme corresponding with the floors inside.

The office complex represents a rather unique design choice among the Houston Energy Corridor's agglomeration of corporate campuses. 

Clad with tinted glass all the way around, it makes for nice reflections at sunset on the Western side, and creates mirror images of trees and foliage on the side facing Addicks-Howell Road. The building is located near Highway 6 with official address at 16010 Barkers Point Lane, Houston, TX 77079.
