											With 40 floors and a gross floor area of 150,000 square meters, the tower houses approximately 780 guestrooms, suites and sky villas. The hotel also includes a variety of meeting and event facilities, gaming rooms, lobby atrium, restaurants, spa, and sky pool. Including extensive back of house areas and supporting ancillary facilities, the tower’s design resolves the many complex programs for the hotel within a single cohesive envelope. 
  
The design combines dramatic public spaces and generous guest rooms with innovative engineering and formal cohesion. The rectangular outline of the site is extruded as a monolithic block with a series of voids which carve through the its centre of the tower, merging traditional architectural elements of roof, wall and ceiling to create a sculptural form that defines many of the hotel’s internal public spaces. 
  
The tower’s exposed exoskeleton reinforces the dynamism of the design. 
Expressive and powerful, this external structure optimizes the interior layouts and envelops the building, further defining its formal composition and establishing 
relationships with the new Cotai strip. 
  
Development of the new hotel at City of Dreams commenced in 2013. The project 
is expected to open in early 2017.
