In January 2016, designs were released for a striking new high-rise tower that will be the flagship of a new M City masterplanned community in Mississauga, Ontario.

Rising to a height of 60 storeys, the tower will be the city’s tallest building, and the first of 10 towers in a $1.5 billion urban redevelopment.

Conceived by CORE Architects, who won a design competition for the project, the tower’s undulating geometry results from a unique application of seven floor plates that twist the building as it rises.

Each of M City’s seven typical floor plates take turns skewing to each extreme as the building rises, stacking in a repetitive pattern. The non-rectangular geometry creates the impression of fluid movement and lightness of mass, leaving a striking presence on the Mississauga skyline.

Faceted glass walls introduce a prismatic shape to the podium, accommodating a large rooftop amenity space.
