The Wave Tower
Going Like Sixty — March 4, 2008 — Art & Design
The Wave Tower is the newest high rise building to be built in the city that has too much money. A-cero Architects are incorporating the waves of the oceanfront property into the overall design of the place.
It is supposed to appear as if it is floating and the gently rolling bridge connects it to the mainland. It will be 92 floors of luxury, complete with indoor gardens.
"The tower stands like a stylized stem with a light torsion, creating the elegant movement that characterizes the project," according to Dexigner.com. "The base has the form of a pointed arch with smooth bends, imitating the shape of the waves in the Gulf Sea."
