一個初步研究模型是由一個方形的便簽紙組成，描述了一座塔的概念，這座塔不是一個完全規則的箱體，也不是一個清晰的，違背空間的普通盒子。相反，這個模型表明了一個概念上的軟幾何結構，或者更好，表明了一座扭曲的塔。

塔沿其高度旋轉——輕微旋轉，頂部順時針旋轉，底部逆時針旋轉。平面的形狀和大小隨著塔體的旋轉而保持不變。形式的曲率通過水平和垂直的鋼板網來傳遞，該鋼板網框起來一個玻璃外殼。隨著曲率的增加，鋼板之間的間距減小，以此來保持平面玻璃面板細分。

擬定的玻璃裝配系統由水平和垂直的“鰭片”組成。玻璃窗組件從不彎曲，因此外彎曲表面是厚鋼板鰭的集合。這座新建筑將成為一家高級餐廳的所在地。該餐廳的內部結構框架緊扣外觀造型。四個角柱經歷一系列復合斜接后，用以反映曲線形式。該建筑包括一樓、夾層、二樓和一個由內部樓梯和電梯連接的露天屋頂平臺。

A preliminary study model made from a square pile of note paper, describes a concept for a tower which is not quite a regular box, nor a clear, spatial departure from the regular box.Rather the model suggests a conceptually soft geometry, or better, a twisted tower.

The tower twists along its height - rotates slightly, both clockwise at the top and counter clockwise toward the bottom.The plan shape and size is maintained as the tower volume pivots.The curvature of the form is conveyed by the horizontal and vertical steel plate grid that frames the glass enclosure.As the curvature increases, the spacing between plates is decreased to maintain the planar glass panel subdivision.

The proposed glazing system is composed of horizontal and vertical ‘fins.’ Glazing components were never curved, so the outer curving surfaces are conveyed as the aggregate of the plate steel fins.This new structure will serve as the home of an exclusive restaurant.The internal structural frame closely follows the exterior shape.Four corner columns undergo a series of compound miters to reflect the curving form.The building consists of a ground floor, a mezzanine, a second floor, and an open-air roof deck connected by an internal stair and elevator.
