The unique ziggurat form of these twin 50-storey towers of super luxury apartments with only one apartment per floor is made possible by separating the core from the body of the tower, and which then acts as a vertical support for the stack of floor plates to lean against.
The leaning form in addition to creating a powerful and recognizable form creates free terraces. Units are orientated North and South to minimize solar gain and expose units to the favourable Southerly breeze that cools Kolkata for 9 months of the year..
A swimming pool and deck span between the two towers suspended in the space between the cores and the apartments. Above the pool deck, the towers create a soaring enclosure made more dramatic with a communal and private hanging gardens.
At ground floor, the towers sit in a reflective pool which naturally cools the environment.
