Burj Al Alam will be an iconic addition to the skyline of Dubai and an architectural masterpiece that will be acclaimed the world over. Rising up to 108 storeys, it will offer ultra-modern offices, a five-star hotel, a high-end shopping plaza as well as the world's first roof top spa. Engineered by Arup Japan and designed by none other than Nikken Sekkei Japan, it will be 501 mtrs high making it the tallest commercial tower in the world. Construction will begin in 2006 and the project is expected to be completed by Dec. 2010.

Burj Al Alam will offer offices and residencies of uncommon beauty and style - as well as the most enticing array of amenities, recreation and pleasures. The tower is strategically designed to accentuate the view of Business Bay Creek on the South side and the Burj Dubai super-high rise tower on the North. An extensive podium design, with specialty design retail spaces that feature luxury designer brands, will serve as the first point of approach.

Structure like this is all about materials. If those are not upto the task the effect by en large gone too. Glass doesn't look too much like a glass and geometry is too overly sketchy. I understand that very size of the building may present challenge. But if one can't6 really take it one why to do it? Same thing - size makes it not really suitable to SC4 as well...

This building is BEAUTIFUL, the only downside to it is the MASSIVE lot. A lot more people (including me) would love this if the base was shrunk down to, lets say, 8X8 or something like that. Never the less, a 5 * rating from me. Hope to see more work like this from you,

Totally adore this! makes a great centre piece for downtown or if you want to have a Miami/Hong Kong style waterfront in terms of the colours at night. Truely a wonderful building Next step would be either make one with jobs, or make it into apartments, or make it a reward lot, like the world trade centre. Also maybe shrink the base a bit, cause you have to plan your city when making it to where to put it.
