Marilyn is part of the organic and sinuous design language wielded by MAD Architects and its leader, Ma Yansong. The soft, curvaceous shape of the handle is reminiscent of the innovative form used by MAD for the Absolute Towers in Toronto, which local residents have nicknamed the Marilyn Monroe Towers.
