DreamUp Tower is an Extraordinary Product Proposed for the Marcus Lemonis Brand
Conceptualized by Creative Director & Designer, Stephen S. Cascio
DreamUp Tower brings the Marcus Lemonis brand to life, both emotionally and physically.
Standing at approximately 16 stories tall, the DreamUp Tower aims to capture the attention of people of all ages by offering an immersive experience of the Marcus Lemonis brand through on-site education, healthy dining options, event spaces, design exhibits, and local shops. The crowning jewel of the tower is the SkyDeck, located on the topmost level, offering 360-degree panoramic views of the surrounding community.
The tower’s three enclosed floors are dedicated to each aspect of Marcus’s passions: small business, lifestyle, people, and culture, inviting visitors to come together, dine and enjoy the stunning view from above.
The DreamUp Tower is designed to serve the public and emerging communities. Its versatile structure serves as an iconic landmark and destination attraction, showcasing and promoting the Marcus Lemonis brand. Its multipurpose design makes it a hub for community activities.
The rendered structure above was inspired by the Kuching Civic Centre in Malaysia and is shown for design inspiration only.
An Architectural Wonder, Empowering Minds to Wonder
One and not done.
The DreamUp Tower developments are designed to be scalable. Following the successful design and implementation of the initial DreamUp development, additional towers will be established in emerging communities across America and around the world. The selection of locations is based on a combination of factors such as community interest, demographic research, revenue potential, and growth sustainability.
Playful, Awestruck, Imaginative Architecture
To infuse originality and excitement into the Marcus Lemonis brand and its surrounding community, DreamUp Towers feature a range of distinctive architectural designs created by renowned architects. These creative minds incorporate innovative materials, cutting-edge technology, and new experiences, as the DreamUp team continues to build upon and improve upon past developments.

The Art of Naming the Tower, DreamUp
The name DreamUp Tower was inspired by the act of visualizing ideas and imaginary events in one’s mind. The combination of the word “Dream” with “UP” conveys a positive connotation and alludes to the height of the physical structure, while also evoking a creative, entrepreneurial spirit in the name DreamUp.
Note: The naming of the tower is open for discussion.
