Rise to the Occasion

Christian Lacroix’s design experience is literally rising to new heights. The legendary designer has been asked to apply his signature skills on an avant-garde high-rise building in Dubai. Lacroix and the Middle Eastern real estate development firm Abyaar will team up for the joint venture to create a residential tower in one of Dubai’s exclusive beachside suburbs. The skyscraper will incorporate a Lacroix-designed façade, lobby and luxury interiors with a contemporary and baroque look, fusing East and West. The launch date has not been confirmed yet.
