A feat of engineering, the tower is part of an international arts program curated by Urban Art Projects’ (UAP). Designed by UAP Principal, Daniel Tobin the Beacon is a “contemporary interpretation of a lighthouse” with a intricate construction made up of ‘amorphous hexagonal’ pre-cast concrete blocks.
