I was staying at a friend's friends house and passed on my way these wonderful skyscraper-residentals. They are called Absolute Towers. They are a set of five residential towers in the city of Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. Construction of three of the towers was completed by 2008. The last two blocks, Absolute Word 1 and Absolute World 2, were completed in 2011. The two towers are also known as the 'Condo Couple'.
Imposing, statuesque and endowed with an undulating sequence of curves, it's no surprise that MAD Architects' mesmerising Absolute World 1 was nicknamed 'Marilyn Monroe' for its curvy, hourglass figure by smitten locals.
In Mississauga, Canada's sixth largest city, Beijing-based MAD saw fit to embrace not only a global trend for curvaceous skyscrapers, but also for satellite developments to express the town's individuality.
