Artist's impressions

Designed by the world-renowned Ole Scheeren, DUO Residences is no less ambitious than any skyscraper. Complementing the national importance of this development, DUO aspires to create and become the nucleus of this civic district. Using modern architectural paradigm, the three towers are carved into concave shapes with a dramatically lighted facade, lending it a slender yet voluminous touch. Overall, the two towers interact with one another to evoke the image and energy of a dancing couple.
