New designs for architect and engineer Santiago Calatrava's landmark observation tower in the Dubai Creek Harbour. Calatrava's monumental design is influenced by the natural forms of the lily and evokes the shape of a minaret, a distinctive architectural feature in Islamic culture. The iconic structure combines modern, sustainable design with the rich culture and heritage of the United Arab Emirates. The building's numerous observation decks are part of an elongated, oval-shaped bud at the top of the tower.
