Accademia Tadini on Lake Iseo reborn with Isotec
Brianza Plastica's Isotec thermal insulation system played a key role in the restoration of Palazzo Tadini, a masterpiece of Lombard neoclassical architecture and a landmark of the art world.
Following a five-year pause, the Jeddah Tower in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, is beginning to grow once again. Among the various issues that affected the completion of the supertall skyscraper was the 2017 corruption-related arrest of Bakr bin Laden, chairman and larger shareholder of the Saudi Binladin Group, which was meant to fund the project. At that time, after four years of work, the Jeddah Tower had reached a height of 50 stories.
The Middle East Economic Digest (MEED) reports that the Jeddah Economic Company is seeking a new contractor capable of completing the building, which is projected to reach a height of over 3,280 feet and is currently only one-third complete.
The Jeddah Tower was designed by Adrian Smith and Gill Gordon Architecture.
