Four Leaf Towers

Les Four Leaf Towers sont un complexe de gratte-ciel de logement de 135 mètres de hauteur (hauteur du toit) construit à Houston au Texas en 1982. L'ensemble est composé de deux tours de même hauteur.

Les architectes sont Cesar Pelli dont ce fut l'un des premiers gratte-ciel, AC Martin et Melton Henry. C'est l'un des premiers gratte-ciel des années 1980 qui rompt avec les formes purement rectangulaires du style international. Il préfigure le style post-moderne.
