Forma Featured In The Architect's Newspaper: Frank Gehry’s Toronto supertall project has an official name: Forma

Developers Great Gulf Group, Westdale Properties, and Dream have further pulled back the curtain on a years-in-the-making project in Toronto’s Entertainment District anchored by two Frank Gehry–designed towers. Most notably, the development team has shared a pair of new renderings of the 84- and 73-story towers and revealed that the project at 266-284 King Street West now has a proper name: Forma.

As part of the unveiling, the team has also launched an official website for the project.

Forma is the first Gehry-designed new development in his native Canada. The western tower is the tallest building ever designed by the Los Angeles-based architect, beating out his 76-story residential skyscraper in Manhattan, 8 Spruce Street. Per a press announcement from the development team, the mixed-use project’s name was “inspired by the towers’ dancing movement” and marks a “bold, yet timeless masterpiece that will forever impact the way that visitors and residents experience Toronto.”
