Summary: Commissioned by Southern and Bosera Funds back in 2010, the project was envisioned to contrast with other high-rises in the vicinity because it is different. With its memorable design, based on an early sketch of how skyscrapers should look in the future drawn by Hans Hollein during his time in Chicago, it becomes a dominant statement amid the high-rises, in an exposed corner position of the cluster.
