Architect Jean Nouvel is on a roll. His projects are popping up everywhere, but this may be the grandest. In choosing Nouvel’s design, the competition judges stressed that this ‘is the most important act of architecture since the Eiffel Tower’. In this win, Nouvel beat other architectural superstars such as Foster, Liebskind, Jaques Ferrier and Wilmotte. The Tour Signal will be France’s first ever mixed use tower and will symbolize the regeneration of the la Defense district.

My first time here was on a rainy niight with quite diffused light when I missed my train stop – I stepped out and literally did not know where to walk – as the water and flatness gave the feeling like standing on the edge of infinity on another planet – it was totally awesome. a bit eerie ………given the right circumstances – try to visit this place at night when no one is around and get the awesomeness of the architecture at its zenith.
