Im not very familiar with islamic architecture so I take your word for it, and the fact that it resembles something related to the islamic culture makes it a good concept despite the object itself might not work in aesthetic terms.

At first I didnt like this building but its grown on me. I like the nice balance in the proportions and the setbacks are nice. The facade is a little weak. It would look great except the weird distortive glass on the bottom and the oversized plastic looking arches hurt the overall nice exterior.

It soars quite well, and it's nice and slender, but the colour seems a bit drab.

Another tower in Dubai that was over-designed. Doesn't impress me, sorry. I give it a 5/10.
