CAYAN TOWER DUBAI
La Cayan Tower, connue comme Infinity Tower avant son inauguration, est un gratte-ciel de Dubaï aux Emirats Arabes Unis.
La tour mesure 306 m de haut et comporte 73 étages.
Les travaux ont commencé en 2006. La construction de l'Infinity Tower a pris pas mal de retard car le site a été en partie inondé durant l'année 2007. Elle a été officiellement ouverte le 12 juin 2013.
La tour ressemble à la Turning Torso, située à Malmö en Suède : à savoir que les étages tournent sur eux-mêmes de 1,2 degré en s'élevant. Les étages les plus hauts sont ainsi décalés de 90 degrés dans le sens des aiguilles d'une montre par rapport au sol, afin d'imiter la forme de l'ADN humain.

Cayan Tower, known as Infinity Tower prior to its inauguration, is a 306 metres (1,004 ft), 73 story skyscraper in Dubai, United Arab Emirates by Cayan Real Estate Investment and Development.
The tower is designed by Skidmore, Owings and Merrill SOM architectural group, the same group who did the concept design for the Burj Khalifa also in Dubai and Trump Tower in Chicago. Upon its opening on 10 June 2013, the tower has become world's tallest high rise building with a twist of 90 degrees.
Cayan Tower's apartments are designed with reconstituted wooden floors, Chinese synthetic marble counter tops, and kitchen fixtures. The tower also includes a five story parking garage behind it. The Cayan Tower has house financing options available for those residents who may want to lease out their weekend or holiday condo. The rooms of the tower are designed in such a way that it wouldn't be affected by direct sunlight due to titanium colored metal panels on cast-in-place concrete columns aided with repetitive staggered screen panels to stop penetrating sunlight from disturbing the residents of the unit. The lack of balcony space helps with the feeling of enclosure and passive solar shading.
