For some reason, twisted tower is becoming very popular in architecture in recent years, from SOM's early version of the Freedom Tower, to Calatrava's Melmö in Sweden.WTC from FOA, Asymptote, CCTV, MAD,Hadid... H&dM's new Roche Tower in Basel takes an asymmetrical approach which is quite interesting...
This is a BEAUTY CONTEST:
post your favorit Twisted Tower (or the worst ever)
and be the judge - dividing them in masterpieces and ugly mutants (there are some of them)
it reminds me of a well-known singaporean firm's design for Singapore's Marina Bay Integrated Resort - its in flash so i havent copied out the image but you can find their work here - wohadesigns.com click on competitions then click marina bay IR
