Signature Towers (formerly known as Dancing Towers) is a three-tower, mixed-use complex that is to be built in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. It was designed by Iraqi born architect Zaha Hadid after winning an international design competition which included proposals from OMA[4] and Reiser & Umemoto among others. The developers are Dubai Properties[5], the company responsible for the earlier Jumeirah Beach Residence. Apart from these three towers, the project will also include a new building to house the Dubai Financial Market, a large podium containing retail space and a pedestrian bridge crossing the creek extension[6].
History
The project was first unveiled to the public in June, 2006[5] at a Zaha Hadid exhibition in the Guggenheim Museum in New York.[7] At the time of the launch the name for the project was Dancing Towers; however, this has now been changed to Signature Tower & Dubai Financial Market Development.
