Imperial Tower (Hafeez Contractor)

The Imperial Tower in Mumbai, India will be one of the city's tallest buildings at 400 meters tall. It is a 116-story residential tower next to two existing towers that will serve as a prototype for future tall buildings in Mumbai's dense but currently low-rise urban environment. The aerodynamic tower shape is designed to minimize wind impacts and features lush skygardens that help reduce wind vortexes. The tower will provide luxurious residences with amenities like skygardens that offer light, views, and a connection to nature uncommon in Mumbai high-rises. It uses sustainable design including green walls, greywater recycling, and efficient systems to reduce its environmental impact.
