The company ZNera Space designed the Downtown Circle with a height of 550 meters. The architects planned the vertical megastructure to become a new natural and urban landmark in Dubai. The circular building in Dubai will compose typical energetic urban metropolises from public and commercial places to green Skygarden. The green lung will sweep through the entire ring, which will add a pleasant atmosphere to the building.

The circular building will have four vertical beams that will support it. As the building will have five levels, it will have the opportunity to create smaller units to maintain the needs of cultural, public, and commercial programs. Along with many opportunities, the building will offer a green area with natural light and a panoramic view of the great city of Dubai.
