Dubai has become notorious for its luxury architecture. Now a new project is being developed by Sybarite Architects after a major hotel group offered to help with the funding. The 28 floor building will be located 300m from the coast, accessible only by helicopter or boat. The seven star hotel will have 438 luxury suites as well as an art gallery, sumptuous spa facilities and an underwater restaurant!

“To top it off, the top two floors would house a temperature-controlled butterfly jungle with tropical species,” Building reports. “Its unique structural design has not yet garnered a nickname, but Building staff have variously named it ‘The Rollmop’, ‘The Pringle’ and ‘The Funnel’.”
