Most of those so-called twin buildings are horrible and show a lack of imagination times two. What's much more interesting in my opinion are buildings that have a dialogue together and respond to each other, rather than just repeat the same boring curtain wall because it's cheaper. Twin buildings spawned from two different fertilised eggs, let's say...
Hello everybody,
do you know of any project that involves two identical (or almost identical) buildings close to each other?
An example would be the project of the Cabanas en el Rio by Aires Mateus or the Trubek and Wisloki houses by Venturi Scott Brown and Associates.
Thanks!
I’ve heard there was one in nyc.
The Marina City building, Chicago.
345 Fullerton Parkway, Chicago
5701 North Sheridan Road, Chicago
860 880 North Lake Shore Drive, Chicago
Presidential towers not twins but 4 buildings, Chicago
20 South Wacker Dr, Chicago
There are others in Chicago but these are the ones I know of.
The Empire State Plaza in Albany, NY. Four of those puppies are identical.
Greenway Plaza in Houston, TX has three pairs of twins, Buildings 1&2; 9&11 and 8& 12.
Also, the Century Plaza Towers in LA.
Thank you all for helping!
I'm actually looking for small buildings, about 10 floors max.
More common than not.
I 100% thought this was a new rehashing of the other thread. You know the one...
Ando!

Not exactly two buildings, but two towers. One of my favorite buildings in NYC:
