Bandra Ohm residential tower by James Law Cybertecture

  Inspired by the symbol Ohm (O), Bandra Ohm is a 140m tall residential tower in India, with fluid swimming pools on balconies, designed by world renowned architect James Law of James Law Cybertecture International.
The design of the tower is also inspired by the ripple result generated by water droplets, which is also known as the capillary wave. The ripple effect encourages fluidity that shows in the tower’s construction.
