Philippe!

Sorry, typing error. In full then:

There is also a discussion board you may be interested in for your
design. Here it is:

I liked the simplicity of your Wing either glinting metal as you say, or pure white; purity was what I admired in the twin towers. For that reason (but what do I know?!) I perhaps wouldn't have those mid-height decks. Minarets, indeed! I think the least overt symbolism is
often the most telling - as in the line of your building which could read indeed as an aircraft wing or pure soaring earth to sky spirit
and regeneration. I thought the "hidden" axis orientation was touching.

Bonne chance!
