Headquarters of Aldar, UAE
From series “Glass Architecture - Impressive Villas and Buildings from Glass”
In Abu Dhabi, you can see a great circular glass building. The circle is embedded in the ground and resembles a glass disk. ALDAR Laing O’Rourke – the main contractor of this building – has chosen the place for Headquarters of Aldar. The unusual building was finished in 2010 and at once became the most unbelievable and effect futuristic place in the whole world. Its high is 121 meters. All 23 floors are used for the commercial purposes.
This office centre can have at once up to 20 000 people. Since the building, the unusual skyscraper became a real decoration of the city. You can see it as from the seaside as from the central part of the city. The unusual form was chosen not by accident. The skyscraper has a deep symbolic meaning. The circle is a symbol or rationality, stability and unity. More than that it is used to consider it as the symbol of perfection and infinity. The whole building’s area is 123 000 square meters.
