O-14 tower, Business Bay, Dubai, UAE - new photos Reiser + Umemoto - RUR Architecture photo : Nelson Garrido O-14 tower Dubai - 5 Oct 2012 O-14 is a twenty-two storey tall commercial tower perched on a two-storey podium in the heart of Dubai's Business Bay. O-14 comprises 300,000 square feet and is a collaboration between RUR Architecture of New York and the Creek Side Development Company of Dubai. O-14 is located along the extension of Dubai Creek, occupying a prominent location on the waterfront esplanade. The design of O-14 fundamentally shifts away from the architectural norm in current Dubai towers by eliminating the now obligatory curtain wall and above ground parking in favor of a shade-producing, concrete load-bearing shell and an open public space at the tower base achieved by moving the parking below ground.
