JOINING THE CITYSCAPE

Open to various vistas and reflections by the ocean, two crystalline towers offer 360 degree panorama of the city of Dubai, on “the walk”, a few steps from the beach. Located in a vibrant quarter, the mixed use project is mainly composed of a 35 storey apartment block and 30 storey hotels. Transparent, multifaceted structural forms attract people visually, as well as with its urban facilities planned at the lower levels of the two towers, such restaurants, high-end shops, spas etc. Dissimilar triangles, with differing angles at horizontal and vertical, form the façade resulting in a crystal like surface reflecting the glitters of the ocean and its surroundings. Framed in a glass skin, every angle at each tower respects the others view and rise without hindering others’ vista opening to various angles of the city and the ocean. The transparent figures join the cityscape in harmony and contribute in the dramatic silhouette by the shore, not only as an elegant sculpture but also as a communicative social entity.
