Wedding Hotel on the World in Dubai

Abstract versions of the shape show how flexible this concept is in the female form. The main body of the construction is concealed by the façade, but can be revealed and highlighted using controlled lighting.

The character of the building can be changed. Landscape shaped areas housed between the floor create private spaces with natural green filters between the living quarters.

The exterior of the building looks much like a piece of silk flowing in the wind.

SISSI´S DRESS

Due to the cramped building site situation, Dubai is planning a city in the sea. New buildable areas are to be created by piling up artificial islands. This total area "WORLD" is divided into respective countries or cities. For example, there is Europe, Sweden, Oslo, Venice... Austria is to act as a distinctive point at the port entrance and is given a unique selling point as a lighthouse based on the world-famous Empress Sissi.

The tower, which contains a hotel and apartments, is divided into levels which, in addition to the generous living space, also have a vertical garden. This garden extends vertically across the entire building and is encased in an amorphous glass façade. This climate envelope offers an oasis in the sea.
