1. Batumi Tower — Batumi, Georgia
One of the weirder skyscrapers: this 200 m tall building incorporates a Ferris wheel embedded into one corner of the façade at about 100 m above ground.Its modernist, somewhat angular shape and the amusement‑ride feature make it a standout oddity.
2. Cayan Tower (formerly Infinity Tower) — Dubai, UAE
This residential skyscraper spirals a full 90 degrees from base to top over its 307 m height, making it the world’s tallest twisted tower when it opened.The twisting shape isn’t just aesthetic — it also reduces wind loads and improves views
3. Turning Torso — Malmö, Sweden
Designed by Santiago Calatrava, this 190 m tall residential tower twists 90° and is made up of nine stacked “cubes” of five floors each. It was one of the first high‑rise buildings to embrace a fully twisting form, making it a genuine architectural oddity.
4. Torre Glòries (formerly Torre Agbar) — Barcelona, Spain
This bullet‑shaped tower clad in aluminium and glass stands out in Barcelona’s skyline. Its smooth, curved form and vibrant façade make it one of Europe’s more visually daring skyscrapers.
