Arts and architecture

[edit]

It is designed by Pritzker Prize laureate Kevin Roche. The square footprint rests on four illuminated cylinders which in turn frames a striking glass lobby. The tower is crowned with a massive pyramidal roof which is the tallest focal point of the entire development.

At the five storey tall lobby is a spectacular mural entitled “Rising” by acclaimed artist Frank Stella. Millenia Tower also houses the giant pumpkin sculpture by Yayoi Kusama, one of the world's most influential artists.[citation needed]
