The Stone Towers by Zaha Hadid Architects
The architect was inspired by samples and structures of ancient Egyptian stone constructions. Lines of northern and southern facades of each tower will be with breakages and ledges that underlines effect of light and a shade on a surface.
Towers will be constructed around Stone Park in Cairo. A total area of 525,000 sq. m.; here business hotel, office and trading spaces, restaurants and cafe will be located.
The main figures of this project — height of 160 metres, the budget of 1 336 million euro. Besides it, the tower is obviously inclined to effects. Capital Gate, the project of bureau RMJM on 4 degrees have overtaken the well-known tower in Pisa (18 degrees of an inclination against 14).
Art Tower in Dubai
The developer of the project is international exhibition company Abu Dhabi (Abu Dhabi National Exhibitions Company (ADNEC).
“Capital Gate — fine result of a combination of accurate vision, creativity and adaptability to manufacture of the engineering decision. I am very happy with process and would like to express gratitude to all people involved in an embodiment of this surprising project during a life”, — the operating director of group ADNEC speaks Simon Horgan.

In a tower hotel Hyatt 5* which will offer visitors of 189 numbers, and also office areas will be located. On 18th floor of a tower it will be placed tea with an open terrace and pool, with a kind on a city and a gulf.
That the building has sustained a non-standard inclination, it is placed on a concrete facade by depth of 2,1 metres; the design represents architectural system in the form of a steel diagonal lattice, which leaves in the earth on 30 metres to provide stability to winds, gravitational and seismic.
Reconstructing appearance of facade Hair Couture Salon, architects, bureaus “x Architekten” should solve the main task — the place is on a silent small street, nearby to trading arteries of a city, therefore it was necessary to make something such to entice people and to be visible from apart.
Lock of architectural hair
The turned out design looks as a three-dimensional lock of architectural hair which recline a wave on a facade.
Simultaneously, such dynamical variant carries out one more important function — the lattice closes that is created inside from passers-by, and creates the necessary atmosphere in salon. From each point of the review the facade looks differently.
The laminated cloths placed vertically on various distance and under a various corner to a front wall, were used as a material for a wave. Individual parametres for each cloth paid off in 3D.
Contextual conformity
To context there corresponds also colour of the laminated cloths — a soft golden shade, somewhere in between categories "blonde" and "brunette".
