CTBUH 11th Annual Awards - Cordiano Yansong, "Absolute World Towers: Anthropomorphic Iconography"
Thursday, October 18, 2012. Chicago, USA. Joe Cordiano, Cityzen Development Ma Yansong, MAD Architects. Dubbed the "Marilyn Monroe" building, due to its sexy curves, Absolute Towers has added a new landmark to the skyline of Mississauga, a fast-growing suburb of Toronto. The architects sought to add something "naturalistic, delicate and human in contrast to the backdrop of listless, boxy buildings." The design features smooth, unbroken balconies that wrap each floor of the building.From:ctbuhViews:0 0ratingsTime:31:32More inEducation
