wow.... absolutely truly amazing .... I JUST LOVE THIS ONE ...

in fact, if I just envision the moment it is constructed and standing tall along with one of my most favorite towers in Paris, next to it, I can only think of one symphony to be played:

Karmina Burana by Carl Orff and just enjoy the view!!!

Yeap CharlotteJ .

In addition to being an original tower with a decent height/lovely modern design & a pretty interesting cladding (at last), it's going to bring some balance to the skyline of La Défense (view from the Champs Elysées for instance). Indeed, there are so many projects under construction or planned on the right hand side (Courbevoie) that a major project was needed on the left hand side (in Puteaux). I now wish that the outstanding Osmose tower will see the light in Puteaux in the next few years, no matter how long it can take, this tower is too gorgeous not to get built...

Yes true. I have been staying at a hotel in Puteaux area and if you then enter La Defence it can really impress one when a few 50+ floor skyscrapers can welcome one onto the area. Like I said, two or three 250meters or one 300meters tall building in the area will definitly add up to its charm.

And viewed from Champs Elysée it sure does make the whole picture more than just perfect.
