Can't say I'm a fan.

They should build Libeskind, wilmotte or Foster's projects before they even think of building these two, I can't believe they are going with the worst ones. IMO anyway. Ferrier's proposal for the Tour Phare competition was much better than this, and I thought they would have used that for the Tour Signal competition too. Nouvel's was just a re-hash of his Phare project, why couldn't Ferrier do the same?

I quite agree I hope that the design will change a little, but the heights are perfect.

Minuteman · May 27th, 2008, 03:58 PM

I hope it will be built anyway!
It should have been the winner for Signal.

vfG · May 27th, 2008, 05:20 PM

massive but cute... i prefer orange cladding btw
then 4 supertalls for 2014

ParisianStyle · May 27th, 2008, 05:45 PM

The towers arren't very well yet but the worst is their location in LD : they'll hide an all part of the skyline (with Phare, Air², New Gan,...)

Densaga · May 27th, 2008, 06:14 PM

Official site in french

It is not the best supertall ever , but it's better than this shit of Tour Signal by Nouvel imo .

So in Paris ~2014 , we should have
Tour Phare ~300m
Tour Generali ~300m
Tour Signal - 301m (Or very hypothetic 370m with screen)
Tours Hermitage - 309m

ZZ-II · May 27th, 2008, 07:02 PM

4 supertalls until 2014 would be awesome, hopefully more will come

Densetsu · May 27th, 2008, 07:06 PM

Its a really nice designed tower but we shouldnt be duped. I dont think that the cladding will have the yellow-blue color like in the render.

***Minato ku*** · May 27th, 2008, 07:11 PM

Of course it will not, everyone should know that in France the cladding never look like at render.

nashprotector85 · May 27th, 2008, 07:38 PM

That's right! But I think this clading is very interesting and I hope they won't change it if they build this tower.

potipoti · May 27th, 2008, 07:43 PM

wow, i love those 2 "bridges" between the towers...

it looks nice!!

-Corey- · May 27th, 2008, 07:45 PM

Not bad, i like the base though.

aidar89 · May 27th, 2008, 07:53 PM

why russians sponsors this project?

And it is wouldnt be a tallest project in Europe

***Ni3lS*** · May 27th, 2008, 10:09 PM

Wow! another supertall for Paris!

Great!

Sadly, this is undeniably a very true statement.

Fido_le_muet · May 27th, 2008, 10:14 PM

It's a great building, no doubt about that. But the location is so wrong !!! It will hide all the north part of LD when looking from the Arc de Triomphe, including Phare, Total, Generali, Gan & Axa.

Dennis · May 27th, 2008, 10:26 PM

Love this towers, this is what paris needs! amazing!

The other Dude · May 28th, 2008, 12:49 AM

i dont like it, it is not aestetic, its just a strange thing... i mean, a 5 year old could draw such lines

JPBrazil · May 28th, 2008, 02:30 AM

I loved it, it's very modern it reminds me that building in Beijing
