BORA TEMELKURAN ARCHITECTURE PLLC

Addis Ababa Tower 2 is BTA's second commercial tower proposal in Ethiopia.

Each of the five volumes shaping the sculptural quality of the form signifies one of the 5 subregions of Africa while 54 countries of Africa are represented by the 54 floors.

The geometric pattern of the facade gives the volumes a jewel-esque quality by reflecting the environment on each facet and creating a shimmering effect.

The facade patterns give reference to the indigenous textile patterns of the region while the colors of each volume represent the colors of the Ethiopian flag.
