Dubai Towers

“The four towers, ranging from 54 to 97 floors, are clustered to form a choreographed sculpture, representing the movement of candlelight”, the architect write in their press release from January this year.I like these towers,there is a mystery in designing,also the structure of this building is so complicated,I think just for make model you 'll be confused.



The towers twist, wave and taper. All at the same time. Note that the twisting is hardly visible, it is really subtle. Swiss Re merely suggested the twisting, Dubai Towers does it. And the effect is enormous. It is for the first time in architecture history – as far as I know – these three parameters are combined in reality. Dubai Towers take architectural form to a new level.The Architecture firm Thompson, Ventulett, Stainback and Associates.
