The island nation of Taiwan has become a hotbed for innovative architecture, with the Taiwan Towers as no exception. These twin towers were designed by Steven Ma, San Liu, Xinyu Wan and Emre Icdem to be super-slim eco-friendly skyscrapers, showing off Taiwan's past, present, and future.
The Taiwan Towers are top and bottom heavy with an open-air garden on the roof. These ultra-luxurious structures also boast a greenhouse, outdoor theater and event plaza. A residential area will also be incorporated into the design, as well as an aviary for endangered birds.
