Twisting tower, UAE
Date: 2011
Architects: Skidmore Owings & Merrill
Infinity Tower, Dubai
A truly unique building destined to become an icon in the heart of the world’s fastest growing, most dynamic city, Dubai: a twisting tower of 330mt with 75 stories, to become the world’s tallest high rise building with a twist of 90°.
A marvellous skyscraper designed by the Architects Skidmore Owings & Merrill of Chicago, that RUGGIU, together with his partner in the UAE Murano Lighting is pleased to illuminate in the façade part by means of high efficiency RGB led modules – IP68 – manufactured in different sizes to fit in the different niches of the twisting tower.
The RGB modules are controlled by DMX to create a variety of lighting effects: colours will change synchronously and asynchronously in master and slave mode to catch people’s eyes. The colours will definitely add beauty to the tower and will make it even (if possible) more extraordinary.
Using LED technology from Fial (Ruggiu Group) the building fascade will be lit, the DMX controlled IP rated RGB modules further increase the spectacular design of an iconic piece of architecture.
