Ces tours on été dénommées "Marylin Monroe Towers"

Nickname

Absolute World Tower 4 was dubbed Marilyn Monroe by Sam Sibai during the announcement of the winning Yansong Ma design, because, to him, it looked like Marilyn Monroe.^{[citation needed]} The variation of the rotation of the floorplates--from two to eight degrees--and the high position of the "bulge" in the silhouette give this tower its dynamic feminine profile. The Absolute World Tower 5, on the other hand, is characterized by a uniform rotation of each floor and a lower swelling of its profile; inevitably giving it the appearance of Marilyn's masculine companion.

The tower twists 209 degrees  from the base to the top, making it very similar to Turning Torso in Malmö, Sweden. The structural design is done by Sigmund Soudack & Associates Inc- a Toronto based almost 40 years old structural engineering firm. The tower has six levels of underground parking.
