Two thumbs up for an original, fresh design!

NoAllegiance · July 25th, 2007, 03:10 AM

This tower is fantastic. I am shocked. This tower should be an inspiration to building designers everywhere. I wish we had skyscrapers like this in Hartford! Stupid CitiPlace.

Yet ANOTHER Dubai masterpiece...

looks nice... but still a bit different from the rendering no?

Sentient Seas · October 16th, 2007, 05:55 PM

It's that textbook incredible Dubai skyscaper designing. They seem to always get great looking towers. And I agree with Joy Machine, I think us Americans are also far behind on skyscrapers.

dettol · October 17th, 2007, 09:23 AM

thx Imre!

Interesting what they have done here...

Imre, have you got any picture of the 'front' view of the tower?

xlchris · October 17th, 2007, 09:58 AM

He's looking great! Very very nice!

I think it's kind of silly how people are constantly saying this for various cities. Skyscrapers are high profile, but people always grossly overestimate how many people it takes to fill them up. I never hear any "OMFG THEY"LL NEVER FILL IT UP LOL" when they put in a bunch of acres of single dwelling houses all over the place like they constantly do here in the US, even though a single subdivision holds more people than, say this tower. Dubai wants to save their land, so they build up instead of out. Same goes for Shanghai and other cities where people are always amazed when a tall building goes up.

The_Dude · October 28th, 2007, 03:51 AM

Well said, Hollie. That's one of the best alanogies I've heard and I plan to use it from now on, hope you don't mind.

***soup or man*** · October 28th, 2007, 04:17 AM

This is rare but this is actually a very nice and classy skyscraper. It doesn't have have any of the typical Dubai tackiness. I'm impressed.

The base sucks though.

The_Big_O · October 30th, 2007, 08:06 PM

This might be my favorite design...

...for now anyway.
