Better word would be "superficial" twist. It's a regular condo from the inside. The glass isn't sloped, the columns aren't sloped (actually there's no columns, only shear walls). I would give them kudos for the amount of twisting and the accumulated cantilever over the ground plane, but it's not that impressive given the inelegance of all that concrete and shear wall holding it up. The only thing that expresses the shifting of the floorplates will be the location of the white mesh thing over the glass railings.

Inelegance of the concrete walls holding it up? Sometimes I wonder what you are smokin'. Let's throw function out the window for twists and turns you can't hang a simple cabinet on or, better yet, frosted glass dividing the individual units for the sake of form only the residents will ever contend with. (not to mention it's quite evident on any construction photos that there are columns and walls that twist with the floorplate)
