Model photos of iPod-inspired building revealed
The first photos of a scale model for the iPod-inspired residential tower in Dubai have been posted online. The 23-story tower, due to open in 2009, will be built on a “docking station” at an angle of six degrees. It will include more than 200 homes and offices. The tower is being designed by Hong Kong-based James Law Cybertecture, an award-winning architecture firm focused on futuristic projects and “intelligent” buildings.
