After thousands of years in which buildings were
static, David Fisher's Dynamic Skyscraper is an important step ahead
towards Future Architecture. The Rotating Tower brings three main
futuristic aspects, three revolutions.
The first revolutionary
aspect is related to the shape of the building, which changes
continuously. It is "Architecture as Part of the Environment", adjusting
to the sun and the wind, to the view and to our momentary requirements.
Each floor, in fact, can rotate separately, changing every second the
shape of the building. You can therefore wake up with the sun rising
into your bedroom and enjoy the sunset over the ocean at dinner time.
The Rotating Skyscraper takes on shapes imposed by time and life, never
appearing the same in any two given moments. It is the first building to
have four dimensions: Designed by Time, Shaped by Life.
The
second revolution that the Dynamic Skyscraper brings is the method of
construction. To this futuristic design solution, David Fisher has added
another unique innovation: Prefabrication. It is in fact the first
building produced in a factory, giving construction a new industrial
approach. The entire building, aside from the concrete core, is made of
prefabricated units which arrive to the construction site completely
finished, including flooring, water piping, air conditioning and all
finishes. These units, made of steel, aluminium, carbon fibre and other
high quality modern materials, are installed "mechanically" on site,
offering luxury finishing, very fast construction time, usage of a
limited number of workers, thus reducing site risks and enabling cost
savings. The building, made of single separate floors, is structurally
sound and flexible at the same time, being of very high seismic
resistance.
The third revolution is born from combining
technology and luxury with environment. The skyscraper's wind turbines,
positioned horizontally between each floor, and solar ink on its many
roofs will produce energy making the tower the first self-powered
building. Thus the Rotating Tower, a unique architectural solution,
becomes also a "power station" producing green energy for the city.
