MAD Architects Presents on Absolute Towers

25 October 2006

Yansong Ma & Yosuke Hayano, MAD Design focus on the competition winning high-rise project for Mississauga, Toronto, by MAD Design at the CTBUH 2006 Chicago Conference held at the Herman Hall, Illinois Institute of Technology. Also discussed are tall building proposals in New York and China. Like other fast developing suburbs in North America, Mississauga is seeking a new identity that best explains her own character. We take this as a great opportunity to respond to the expanding need of the city in a special way. Our design forsakes the simplification principle of modernism; in fact, it expresses a higher level of complexity and the diversity of modern society through multiple approaches, and also caters to social needs at multiple levels. The building is sculpture-like in its overall effect and its design expresses the universal language of audacity, sensuality and romance. As the new landmark of the city of Mississauga, it will become an icon of the present landscape, with all its twisting rhythms resembling the human body.
