I apologize if this has been posted earlier. This was a design entry by SOM for the 2006 AIA New York Design Awards. Stunning design and I truly hope Kuwait builds this!

as much i would love to see this outstanding tower in kuwait skyline , however this design was one of the proposed designs for al hamra tower , nevertheless i could be mistaken as this tower named AHF tower so it might be just another tower developed by al hamra real estate

WOW!! Stunning design! Even though this was a proposed design, I really hope this will be an addition (by the same company or even a different one) to Kuwait. We can only hope (lil2asef).
