The two volumes of the Opus Office Tower, are united by a low-level podium base. The ground floor space of the 21-storey building will include retail areas.

By day the building will appear as a solid cube, but at night the pixelated glass facade will offer a reflectivity.

“One of several unique buildings specified as part of masterplan concept for Dubai, the Opus comprises two structures, conceived as a single cube eroded by a free-form void, which appears to ‘hover’ above ground-level. A pixilated reflective façade renders the cube full by day; by night, it ‘dematerializes’ as light floods the void.”
