The tower has the best Eco-Friendly Rank and has both residential and commercial use. The outer glass covering of the building is of two layers which help in two ways, one reduces the heat and prevents heat entering the building, and second, it doesn't block the sunlight from entering the building which helps in reducing the electricity cost in the tower. 

As the tower has a twist on each floor the building gets a new outer view on every floor.
