Playing with time
Tepe Nautilus, Istanbul
Imagine a 120m-high City Wheel without spokes that tilts more than The
Leaning Tower of Pisa. It’s all do-able in this new age of the wheel,
where technology allows us to design beyond traditional formats,
heights angles and locations.
Our designers collaborated with the Wheel supplier/operator, giving
birth to this amazing 80,000m 2 glass egg-integrated entertainment
complex, hosting restaurants, gaming halls, children’s active playparks,
trampoline and sky diving attractions. The Hubless Wheel is the main
anchor – perhaps destined to become the next Leaning Tower – on the
UAE’s iconic skyline.
