A special mark of the whole complex has the floating garden, namely the walkway called the Tide, which runs through the entire complex, and offers London a totally new concept of urban life.
The complex is composed of five shiny glass towers reflecting themselves into the river, and its design, created by the worldly famous architects SOM, contains elegant lines melting into the Thames, thus creating a new seal of London’s horizon.
The highest building out of the five sky-rises is on the north-easter corner and provides dramatic views on the riverbed of Thames. The group of five towers shares architectural relation inspired by the surrounding water, but the internal design of all the buildings is special and unique. The highest, namely the fifth building carries its design inspiration directly by the river Thames and its bank, which can be noticed in its colour, form and texture.
