TORONTO, Aug. 15, 2023 /CNW/ – Lifetime Developments and DiamondCorp, two of Canada’s leading and award-winning real estate development firms, are excited to announce their newest joint venture: Q Tower. Located in the heart of downtown Toronto, in the highly sought after Harbourfront neighbourhood at 200 Queens Quay West, Q Tower will be a 60-storey residential building that will redefine Toronto’s waterfront skyline.

Given the tower’s prominent location, the team engaged internationally renowned Canadian architects, Wallman Architects, to develop the design for the building, that is set to change the Toronto skyline indefinitely. “We are honoured to be a part of this project, especially knowing how important this building will be, given its prime location. The Toronto skyline, photographed from the lake with the CN Tower in the frame, is one of the most used visuals when describing our City and knowing that our tower will forever be positioned immediately next to the CN Tower really pushed us to come up with a sophisticated design, that we are extremely proud of” says Rudy Wallman, Principal of Wallman Architects. Queens Quay West, considered to be the centerpiece of the Central Waterfront Revitalization Project that commenced more than a decade ago, today is a thriving world-class cultural, residential, and recreational hub, steps away from the Rogers Centre, Scotiabank Arena and Ripley’s Aquarium.

The Tower’s elegant and innovative interior has been designed by U31—award-winning interior architecture and design studio. With a blend of rebellious chic inspired by the British Monarchy and British design and fashion, U31 brings forth a harmonious balance between opulence and modernity, designing spaces that are both inviting and visually stimulating. Offering contemporary style with subtle nods to regal sophistication and ‘Bond-esque’ glamor, the Q tower stands in a league of its own.

About Michael Moebius:

Michael Moebius, a globally celebrated artist born in Pirna, Germany in 1968, rose from the stark contrasts of communist East Germany. In the shadow of its confines, he audaciously sketched characters like Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and the Terminator – symbols forbidden in his homeland. Although society nudged him towards engineering, Moebius’ trajectory altered profoundly after discovering Alberto Vargas’ pin-ups, anchoring his dedication to figurative art. Having refined his skills at Dresden’s renowned Academy of Arts, Moebius achieved a pivotal breakthrough in 1998. The Berlin Wall’s collapse granted him passage to the U.S., where his masterful painting and photography immediately captured attention. His creations, characterized by their opulent union of playfulness and Pop Art essence, often showcase luminaries like Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn in delightful renditions. Esteemed magazines such as Playboy, Vogue, Vanity Fair, and Robb Report have celebrated his art, marking it an essential for global aficionados. Transitioning from East Germany’s limitations to the boundless opportunities of the U.S., Michael Moebius epitomizes tenacity, passion, and unmatched artistic genius. His legacy stands as a beacon of inspiration in the worldwide art landscape.  For more information, please visit us at: www.michaelmoebius.com.
