What’s implicit here–and in all the other supertalls–is that we have to live with this stuff and how these huge ego things age.

Wherever these are built, all brought to you by
software vendors and not thoughtful minds.

Brilliant… another place from which the rich and powerful can look down on the rest of us from their ‘ivory tower’. They literatly couldn’t be any further away from their customers!

i don’t think we can say much at all about this tower as all we can see are two presentation renderings.

Actually Japan wins for the fastest internet connections as well as the cheapest.

I don’t think quality architecture directly relates to fast internet though.

I think South Korea’s success in the architectural arena has to do a lot with their commitment to technology. I remember reading that South Korea is the most “wired” city, and with the fastest public Internet connection. When the rest of Asia follows Korea’s lead, then Asia will also share in more economic success stories.

The problem of skycrapers is that they are normally projected as if they were alone in the area. Then people start to build some more close to the others and it seems like a competition.

small observation, you realize that Dubai is in Asia?
