The Crescent Moon Tower is the architectural design project submitted to the 11th ThyssenKrup Elevator Architecture Award by the California-based firm Transparent House.
In response to the challenge to design a tall emblem structure for
Za’abeel Park, one that should signify the modern face of Dubai, Transparence House
chose a larger than life crescent shape that has a two-fold statement.
First it boldly identifies Dubai as part of the Islamic world, and
second, because of the technical difficulty of building such a
structure, it proclaims Dubai’s advanced level of technical and economic
development.The Crescent Moon Tower is designed to accommodate a
children’s library, a conference facility, a restaurant, multiple cafes,
and an open-air observation platform.
