Artist Yan Sook Leong’s Copper Tooling Artwork Finds Its Home At EQ Kuala Lumpur
Robb Report, Kuala Lumpur, 12 December 2023 – In conjunction with EQ Kuala Lumpur’s 50th anniversary, the establishment honoured its artistic legacy with Yan Sook Leong, the artist behind the copper tooling artwork prominently displayed in EQ Kuala Lumpur’s lobby. This piece, rich in historical significance, reflects the ancient artistry of copper tooling––a craft that involves manipulating sheet metal through techniques such as embossing, stamping, denting, piercing, rub-transferring, folding, and hammering. Spanning over 10,000 years, this stands as one of humanity’s earliest metalcraft innovations.

We Checked In to the Best City Hotel in Malaysia. Here’s What It’s Like
Kuala Lumpur, 3 November 2023 – Stylish and sleek EQ Kuala Lumpur is a luxury sanctuary replete with social hotspots that conjure memories of another earlier golden era of its downtown neighborhood.
The Equatorial Hotel embarked on a different destiny when it was demolished in 2012. Now, a completely new-build property has taken on the legacy and somehow elevated it: the luxury, 440-room EQ Kuala Lumpur, part of the 52-story office block Equatorial Plaza. This locally grown hotel – voted in 2023, by Travel + Leisure Southeast Asia readers, Best City Hotel in Malaysia and, by T + L USA readers, tied for 35th Best in the World – neighbours with many of the international hotel chains that now circle the Petronas Twin Towers in the very Golden Triangle where the Blue Moon lounge stood.
