Marina Tower / DKO Architecture
Marina Tower is the tallest tower in New Quay Central?s master plan at 44 storeys. The architectural proposition was to challenge the normal conventions of the high-rise typology ? the stacked repetitive floor plate ? with a sculptural urban form with shifting and cantilevering floor plans and apartment types.
