TOP_AH-7 <Tower of Purification in Dubai>
INSPIRATION
The shape of the tower is modeled after cobra, a symbolic animal in the Middle East, and the curves and curved surfaces of the desert, a representative natural environment. In addition, the building has a religious appearance in the interior and patterns symbolizing Islam as a whole. Burj 2022 will be the first skyscraper to combine culture and religion.
LOCATION

Burj 2022 is located in Uptown District in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. In front of the tower is Jumeirah Beach and Palm Island which has beautiful views, and behind it are vast deserts and cities. Just to the right of the tower is Marina District, Dubai's central business district, which is a skyscraper located in the best location.

SITE PLAN
The main concept of Uptown Dubai District is that supertall towers with seven different facilities are gathered. However, the project decided to change its plan and build only one huge tower in the district. The advantage of this is that the remaining space around it can fill green space and other facilities, which will be of great help to Dubai, where green space is not well distributed in the city.
