Dubai Towers leave you mesmerized with their elegance
I think we have a 8th wonder of the modern world in making. The Dubai Towers are the most mesmerizing piece of architecture that is to hit the world in this century, at least in my opinion. "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 love the structure of the building. It looks so complex. I love the curves of the towers and how they look like they are just slightly twisting. The twists and waves are extremely subtle, but you can't possible not notice them. The effect is so elegant it leaves you breathless. Honestly, I'd make a trip to Dubai only to look at these towers (and manage some shopping as well!). The four towers, ranging from 54 to 97 floors take inspiration from a flickering candle flame.
The amazingly original and exquisitely beautiful Dubai towers are the project of architecture firm Thompson, Ventulett, Stainback and Associates.
