Tallest Building Images, chronological:
Shanghai Tower, China
Design: Gensler
image from architects
This elegant new tower rotates as it juts skyward and concludes with an open-top design. As the shape rises, an open notch curves up and around the building. This device is an engineering feature to control the wind up and away from the building. The tower has 120-storys. It will feature office space, residences, a hotel, retail space, restaurants and a public observatory.
Shenzhen Stock Exchange, China – completed Oct 2013
Design: OMA

This tower is highly unusual, as one might expect from this creative Dutch architecture office. Raising the podium subverts the traditional necessity of connecting a podium to the earth; the design also creates a dramatic public plaza by liberating the ground around the tower. The raised podium also liberates the ground level and forms a large public space. Is this a successful attack on the architectural tradition of the office tower?

U-bora Towers – 25 Apr 2012
This building development is primarily an office tower with a lower residential element. This skyscraper building received an award at the 2012 Cityscape Abu Dhabi Award. The building billows out slightly as it rises, like a subtle version of the Walkie Talkie Building in the City of London. U-bora Towers, which is located in Business Bay, won the Commercial, Office & Retail Project Award in the Built category. This is the fifth award won by this skyscraper building.

The Tallest Towers, alphabetical:
Sarajevo skyscraper
Design: Groleger Arhitekti
rendering : Rok Vettorazzi
The idea by Groleger Arhitekti to create a building, a “diptych”, a merging tower based apparently on two independent volumes, started by a profound analysis of the urbanistic, cultural and social factors of the City of Sarajevo. The result is a metaphorical and encoded building encompassing all environmental influences.
Sama Tower, Dubai
Design: Atkins

Situated on the upscale Sheikh Zayed Road, the 194m tall Sama Tower represents a truly modern design concept. The design responds to the challenge of providing a unique and dynamic form combined with the most efficient and effective space planning.
