An example of early 1990s architecture by the Seymour Harris Partnership, the lift shaft is on the outside of the building and the windows are tinted a dark blue colour. The design blends a traditional look with modern materials and style. It is situated in the heart of the business district of Birmingham. The building is home to many large companies.<\/p>\n<p>The building was constructed after the developers bought the patch of land off another developing company whilst they were constructing a building there. The structure of a building was on the site and it was taken down before construction of Colmore Gate began<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Colmore_Gate\" rel=\"nofollow\">en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Colmore_Gate<\/a><\/p>\n<p>From Pevsner Architectural Guides: Birmingham \u2013 <\/p>\n<p>Colmore Gate, shops and offices of 1990 \u2013 92 by the Seymoure Harris Partnership, with a fourteen-storey tower.
