One of the world's most twisted towers has been unveiled in Chongqing, China.
The Dance Of Light tower, designed by architecture firm Aedas and completed this year, is 180 meters tall and features a twisted facade that emulates the shape of the northern lights, according to a press release.Located on Xingfu Plaza in the Jiangbei district of Chongqing, the building utilizes the simple and elegant form of double-curved facades to create the impression that the building is being twisted, the firm said.
"When night falls, the curved facade showcases reflections that allude to the dancing figure of a ballerina," said Aedas in the press release. The Turning Torso, by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava and built in 2005 in Malmo, Sweden, was the first twisted skyscraper that showcased the innovative style of architecture.
