Dancing Towers

Dancing Towers

The bold design concept of Dancing Towers by Zaha Hadid features a ’choreographed’ fluidity that combines the three towers in one overall gesture. Connecting the commercial, residential and hospitality sections of Dubai's Business Bay, the three towers will share a common base, or podium, that will feature retail, restaurants and related amenities.

The three towers will be conjoined two by two, with the offices and hotel at the base and the hotel and residences at the top. On Level 7, the floor spaces of the hotel and the office towers will merge to create a link to the hotel business center with meeting rooms, office facilities and services for guests.

The residential tower merges into the hotel on level 38, for residents to share collective leisure facilities, including the indoor swimming pool and other amenities.On level 65 of the hotel, the three towers meet again to share a panoramic restaurant offering spectacular views of Dubai Creek, Business Bay, Burj Dubai Downtown, and the Arabian Gulf beyond.

"The advantage of conjoining the three towers in one design is to allow people to live a full day cycle between the offices, residences and the hotel," said Al Dabal.

Radical design. (Reminds me just a bit of the Gehry building in Prague. http://www.achievement.org/achievers/geh0/large/geh0-030.jpg.) I guess the only thing that strikes me is that you might not have to leave the compound for days at a time. Home sweet office, hotel...
