Inaura, a luxury hotel and residential tower in Downtown Dubai, occupies a critical position in the Dubai skyline, and is clearly visible from – and has its own views towards – the Burj Khalifa and the Dubai Fountain. Yet at 210 metres tall, the project finds itself among taller neighbours, which all compete for attention. The design therefore takes a different approach to claiming its place in the city: a luminous, jewel-like orb nestled in between the building’s floors, creating a novel and curious way to steal the attention of onlookers.
