Evolution Tower, former City Palace (Wedding Palace) is being built in Moscow City.
2007 - 2012
47 floors
250 m
A group of Edinburgh architects announced that the mayor of Moscow, Yuri Luzhkov, had approved their design, right, for the City Palace, a 47-storey tower shaped like a drill bit or, as thtioe designer more flatteringly has it, "two ribbons wrapping around each other". Based in the capital's new financial district, it will stand metres away from another British-designed skyscraper, the Russia Tower, created by Lord Norman Foster and intended to be the tallest building in Europe.

Mr Luzhkov is encouraging extensive reconstruction across Moscow. Advocates say he is creating the richest looking city in Europe, while critics dismiss his projects as vulgar and ostentatious.
The architects, RMJM, have described the tower as "sexy" and "sensual". The firm's director and concept designer for the tower, Tony Kettle, said a register office in the base of the tower was inspiration for its design. "We wanted it to look like the marriage of two halves, with a feeling of celebration," he said. "It is a very rich and expressive building." A ballroom will rest on top of the £120m spiral, providing views of Moscow.

City Palace will be partly financed by Alexander Chigirinsky, a property tycoon, whose brother Shalva is backing the Russia Tower, a 118-storey building expected to cost £830m. "Ours is not going to be the tallest, but the most beautiful," Mr Kettle said.

Awesome tower!

Oh damn! It's soooo expensive.. £830m.. :shocked:

Now It's supposed to be that all the buildings gonna look like Turning Torso's shape? It's a quite repetitive form ATM, but IMO It's still a great tower, with a great top :okay:

The top is gonna be purple? Or It's just the lighting?

Oh damn! It's soooo expensive.. £830m.. :shocked:
No, £830m is a cost of Russia Tower, Wedding Palace only £120m:)

Rmjm claims that the name of the tower is "City Palace"

Looks pretty good, kinda getting over the twisting design now.

Now It's supposed to be that all the buildings gonna look like Turning Torso's shape?
It's like a fashion now, every city must have a twisted tower:)

It kind of looks like DNA strand IMO :cheers:

No, £830m is a cost of Russia Tower, Wedding Palace only £120m:)

Thanks! I guess that russians became crazy :lol:

Reminds me of DNA strand. Amazing tower :) ;)

nice tower but how could a tower with 47 floors, be 250 m high????????

what's wrong with it :), on a lot towers is a tall top part without any floors ( for example Bank of America or this one).

Originally the hight was 200m.\
THe last data is 250.
Still we have to wait...

Amazing project! The renders look very nice, this will be a great tower for Moscow.

i second that...

WoW, amazing project for Moscow, another one!!!

it appears that part of Moskow will suffer a dramatic change ..a lot of tower developed there other parts of Moskow ?? how are they??

Twisted towers become a bit boring but this tower is one of the best! Great addition for Moscow.

Is there any movement on the area were this tower will be built

Twisted towers become a bit boring ....It's just the same to say that skyscrapers become a bit boring :)
How this tower could be boring? It is the only one twisted tower in the huge comblex of Moscow-city.
I woould say just an opposite. Without this tower Moscow-city would look more boring...:)

^he said "twisted towers become boring BUT this tower is one of the best"

http://sturman.ometro.net/journ/ssc/arx/marp_02.jpg



:drool: Moscow city will be the place to be in a few years!
I hope it turns out to be a real live and play area, not just a business district.

The building doessn't look 250m.....

The building doessn't look 250m.....On this pic (Moscow city in 2010) the wedding palace is about 220 metres.
I hope it will be higher.

Nice Panorama! It's gonna look really dense 2010! :D

Wow!

wow beautiful tower!

but i agree that these twisted towers become a little bit boring to me-the first one was original and unique and the next one are just copy/paste style;) but even though great project!

Well in this new cluster they have pretty much every other shape, so why not a twisted one?

Well in this new cluster they have pretty much every other shape, so why not a twisted one?This cluster doesn't have a classic boxy tower yet :)

PS But the cluster will have one soon, not very classic. It will be not very tall, so one will be able to see it from the opposite side.
The name will be Terminal

I don't care about the name I like the tower :lol:

Oh, so this is where the Shanghai Cruise Terminal Building finally ended up! :)

Project concept
The multi-functional complex with the Moscow Wedding Palace and underground parking, located on Plots Nos. 2,3 of MIBC Moscow-City between the pier-pavilion of the trade-and-pedestrian bridge Bagration and the Central Core and boarding on the Aqua-Park and Expocenter act as ‘pedestrian gates’ of the Business Center, linking these different-level projects both among themselves, and to the new underground station by means of the trade-and-pedestrian crossing-passages, and on the new Public Square level to the cinema-concert complex and to the new Moscow Government building. Amphitheatre-stairway formed in this way acts as a transitional element between the pavilion of the Bagration bridge and the Moscow Government building.
Such a complicated town-building context resulting from mixture of view perspectives and town-building axes in the complex of different-scale high-rise buildings, claiming a dominant role, calls the design authors for a definite self-restriction in relation to volumes. The Tower being 48 stories in height, does not try to take part in the ‘who is higher’ competition, but complements harmoniously the composition formed out of different-height volumes, making an elegant frame to the Public Square from the western side, and at the same time making no obstacle to the view perspectives and pedestrian axes, oriented for the Government building, cupola of the cinema-concert complex and the Federation Tower.
Without limiting themselves to the role of background architecture, the project authors have set themselves a task of creating a project, which will become really known and internationally recognizable symbolic building of contemporary Moscow, drawing inspiration in the images derived from the helicoidal cupolas of St. Basil Cathedral (a historically formed symbol of Moscow) and in the sweeping silhouette of Tatlin’s Tower (symbol of Russian avant-garde architecture). The idea of the evolutional helix, which geometry is built on mathematically proven harmony principles and symbolizes in itself progress and drive for the future, has acquired a new sound in the concept of the Wedding Palace Complex.
The helicoidal tower, embodying the idea of ‘architecture like music which came to a standstill’ personifies in itself a union of two origins: in the sculptural composition one can read interlacement of arms, embracement and dance of newly-weds. In the pair of spiral-twisted opposite facades, ‘dissolving’ into the sky above the tower roofing, one (the higher) personifies the image of a ‘bridgeroom’, while the other resembles the silhouette of a ‘finance’ with the wedding dress train trailing up to the gala stairway foundation of the Wedding Palace.
The idea of the Wedding Palace location belongs to the Mayor of Moscow — Mr. Luzhkov. The underlying aspiration of the Mayor is to harmoniously bring together the business atmosphere with the ceremonial and festive: «Life does not end after close of business in the offices». It is due to the Wedding Palace that the present architecture of the Tower and the Palace was born.

Innovations
However whilst there is sensuality in the form of the building there is innovation in its function:

The ‘twist’ addresses the urban plan with the orthogonal grid at the plaza level and, throughout its height, each of the adjoining towers in turn
The ‘twist’ extends the period of daylight available to all facades
The ‘twist’ provides uniquely different views per storey
The ‘train’ creates a unique atrium linked to the entrance lobby
The roof form creates a spectacular and premium space
Each floor delivers 1,512 sq m to 1,586 sq m of rentable international Class A office space that is divisible into no more than 2 separate leases
Leasable-to-total floor ratio is an impressive 75%
Floor-to-ceiling height is a generous 2.9 m
Innovative unitized cladding system engineered for ready buildability and replacement
Air intake/outtake at each storey level ensures a dedicated AC system
Latest ‘double-decker’ lift system achieves better-than-class performance


Architectural features of the Project
The concept of the Palace is two-level structure in the space of a huge atrium, which tracery glass covering with backstays, like a train of a bridal veil, unites the tower and the squire in front of the Palace, protecting the entrance group with its canopy and opening a grandiose view over the tower’s sculptural composition through the lace of frameless glazing with ‘spider’-spacers.
Layouts for the future Wedding Palace are being developed at the order of the Head Management for the Moscow City Civil Registry Office, which suggested the organization of two luxury halls for wedding ceremony. The total area of the Wedding Palace will be equal to 2,000 sq m, so it will be the largest Wedding Palace in Moscow. Upon completion of the ceremonial part, the newly-weds will be able to have a wedding breakfast on the very top of the Tower in a luxury restaurant with sweeping panoramic views of oscow from its windows, or in one of the restaurants located in the stylobate part of the complex. The concept of the Tower facade uses double-skin unitized glazing, allowing to provide a three-dimensional geometry of helix.
The Public Square will unite the new building of the Mayor’s Office with the Krasnopresnenskaya Embankment. The amphitheatre stairway formed in this way acts as a transitional element uniting the square around the pavilion of the trade-and-pedestrian bridge Bagration with the esplanade of the new city square, in advance of the entrance to the new building of the Mayor’s Office. These two levels are also connected by means of escalators and travelators along the Eastern border of Plot No. 2. During project development, special attention has been given to landscaping of the Public Squire: there will be here both a apple orchard to end up the romantic marriage ceremony, and a waterfall running down the stairs. The trade-and-pedestrian space under the new Public Square can be accessed from the street on three sides of the complex at level 125.60 m, from which by means of walking through a string of atria threaded on a pedestrian axes of trade malls, one can make it to the Central Core and the Aqua-Park.
The link to the metro station is realized at level 121.00 m and has been put into service since the end of 2005. The main entrance to the Tower vestibule locates on the side of the traffic way along the Central Core at level 130.60 m. The entrance to the future museum of MIBC Moscow-City, which will be located on the area of 2,000 sq m, at level 130.60 m will be located on the side of an esplanade of the public square. The museum is called to highlight all the importance of MIBC for the city of Moscow, provide the information on its creation for all who are interested, to trace the evolution of each plot — from concept to realization. The Museum will also become the place of socially important activities for the City.
All the levels are connected among themselves by means of escalators and panoramic lifts, located in the atria, each of them is decorated in the center with a fountain or a sculptural composition, thus identifying itself for convenience of pedestrians and trade center customers.
Construction of the complex will be conducted in two phases.



Basic structural decisions

this twisting tower craze is pretty funny actually...

Looking at the renders, there is no way this is 250m, more like 150m

wooooooooow amaizing project!!! moscow rules in europe

Great variation on the twist! Moscow is churning out a good number of quality scrapers these days.

That's pretty impressive. A bit too bulky for my liking though.

A feast for the eyes, I really, really like it!

Very beautifully! Yet will not construct I shall marry :)

Stunning tower, great twisting design! :okay:

Very nice ,every tower is being built according to the IBC video , one third of it is taking form already ,in a few years ahead ,Russian will have their own beautiful skylines

I still have some hope they would leave this ugly tower out and won't proceed to build it.


Well, will they proceed?

Most likely.

Any news on this one?

In the russian thread somebody wrote that the tower is postponed to 2013, sounds realistic. I think this tower would give a great addition to the other towers, though I hope that they try to fit the cladding to the rest of the towers.

I just thought that digging is more difficult with frozen ground, so maybe better start in spring and double the amount of excavators for a while..

I think they started because the new mayor of Moscow said that if they don't construct the buildings, the government will build parkings on these plots. Miraculously, 2 months later they found the money and continued works on city palace and plot 16.

Why is still listed as u/c!?! An empty pit full of water does not qualify as an active site. It doesn't even appear to be under prep. More like: On-Hold. I know that that isn't what everyone wants to hear, but look for yourselves. Does it look under construction?

LOL

You can see workers working. That is called U/C Under Construction. On Hold is when the construction has stoped and will not continue.

^^ I can? Do you think that you could point out these workers? All I see is one guy just standing there with his hands in his pockets, and probably thinking, " this will never be built at this rate of progress". Surely, you must be joking! :lol:
And by the way, on-hold is not " when it has stopped and will not continue". We here at Skyscrapercity would call that "Cancelled". ;)

It's officially u\c though, it was re-bought by some big corporation and they're preparing works now.

Why is still listed as u/c!?! An empty pit full of water does not qualify as an active site.

Well at least they are making progress with the pond thus developing MIBC's recreation facilities :lol: Soon enough we'll see ducks there!

The tower is actually the 2nd stage of the project, the 1st one is the giant staricase on the right.

I totally agree, seems to be a disconnect for projects listed in Moscow and the rest of the projects on SSC.

Example Federation Tower never went to a status of hold, even though there was no construction for at least a year?

I think the moderators need to look at this double standard.

I dont have a personal vendetta towards projects in Russia, I do like a lot of these projects, but think we should apply the same rules to these projects as we apply to the rest on SSC

I due fairness, I heard that at least internal works have been going on in the Federation Towers. This has no progress at all. :(

Yeah, maybe this hsould be under 'prep' again

I due fairness, I heard that at least internal works have been going on in the Federation Towers. This has no progress at all. :(
as said, site is divided by two plots - 2 and 3. there is metro and mall entrance under construction on east side - plot 2.

Infinity tower is having a baby!

But the thing is, this one was designed and proposed earlier.

But the thing is, this one was designed and proposed earlier.

But what really came first the chicken or the egg?
Jk jk very irrelevant.
But anyway im not sure, i just thought it would resemble a shorter version of the infinity tower in Dubai, which is being built before this so... However you want to look at it I guess.

^^ not to mention it was a pretty silly reference to begin with.

Work is progressing fast. Wonderful to see.

ีThe visible fast progress takes place at the future shopping centre costruction site, which is supposed to be built next year.
The main tower will be situated closer to the mall at the opposite side of the pit.

Looks very much like Turning Torso in Malmö; not only the shape, the windows and other elements are like they copied it from the TT design! :nuts: But nice project anyway!

It only looks like TT because it turns too. What else?

Well Well ,Now this building has 334 meters

new supertall in Moscwobad

True that! Now move this to Super tall section.

Relax, we dont yet know if it is some kind of misunderstanding or not.

334 meters?! That's almost a 100 meters gain! What happenned to this tower? I am super glad, though, that this will challenge both MCT and 16IBC in terms of skyline impact. Tallest twisting tower in the world then? :D

Really hope for 334 meters! That would be so awesome for Moscow and for the whole area Moscow City :D

Two years ago, I didn't think this project has a chance.. glad that I was wrong..

334m Altitude. AGL, 250m.

If it stays 250 m the Infinity tower ( 307 m ) in Dubai is higher but if it is really going to be 334 m it is the tallest twisted tower in the world.

OMG... Beatiful :)

Fantastic pace on this one. I can't wait to see it rising.

Thanks for update.

What ever happened to the rumour that this was going to be a supertall? Did it turn out to be BS?

Yes! 334 meters from sea level
The tower itself 250 meters, with no changes.

Counting heights from sea level is ridiculous. If we did that, then buildings in places like Denver, Colorado would be amongst the tallest in the world.

^^ La Rinconada 3-floor building wins this contest by being 5120 meters high :D

The progress is obvious:

This is a really gorgeous tower. It might not be the tallest twisting tower around, but I think it gets the prize for being the most twisty tower around! I think it will compliment the MIBC really nicely.

and we seem to be having a good progress too, nice job :cheers:

I assume they're covering the concrete pour to avoid it being snowed-down. What's that building in the last picture?
