The golden tower stands 205 meters (673 ft) from the ground at Jeddah’s corniche.

The irregular layers animate the tower similar to authentic watchtowers, a main feature of Islamic architecture.
 
In association with Jan Van Lierde Studio, Vice has been assigned to create a chandelier for the impressive lobby of a nine-meter high ceiling & the tower façade. To create the perfect chandelier while aesthetically embodying the tranquil shore line, the chandelier was designed using 6000 crystals weighing 2.8 tons that added splendor for a welcoming grand entrance.
