Aeon II

Resier and Umemoto Architects have designed an office tower for Dubai.

For the building’s skin a new concept is being proposed. rather than the typical curtain wall solution, they proposed an economical floor to ceiling window-wall assembly which also allows for the creation of the buildings folded forms. The glazing steps rather than wraps and will be entirely standardized. The building’s reticulated skin is made of perforated aluminum panels. these will have a beneficial effect both aesthetically and environmentally, shading the building from glare and heat, yet allowing for directed views from within the offices.

This mockup reminds me of solar cells or some texture on a Metal Gear from the Metal Gear Solid series or a Summon from the Final Fantasy series.
