TOWERS.
Since the beginning of mankind they exert a
certain fascination on human beings, which is already stated in the holy bible. For two
years now I'm engaged with this project. At my first contact I put my design ideas to
paper for a company that was hired to forward a row concept for construction by the
General Contractor. Of course these first drafts had to be revised over and over again
until we got a concept that would definitly work. As I singed the consulting contract with
the curtain wall manufacturor I already knew: this project would be named for the
Austrian
National Consulting Award.
