Image Captures and The Architecture

The building is connected by an elevated, enclosed stairway from the main walkway. 

 The multiple layers of the building reinforce the notion of multi-story, high density environments.

The long horizontal windows connect the people in the building with the surrounding environment.

The Moving Elements

The creation of a complex micro-climate requires the self-sustainability of a structure. To fulfill this another moving element is utilised in the form of moving solar panels. The elevation of the solar panels are shifted by cylindrical actuators that change the angle of the solar panels to maximise the amount of sunlight they receive, depending on the location of the sun.

To facilitate the operation of high rise buildings, an efficient mechanism for transport is required.

The elevators carrying people from the ground level to the top is an essential moving element required for a building focused on increasing the human density of area.

Stairs accessorise the elevator, providing access to floors unaccessible via the elevator

The Mashup of Three Articles

Ultra-deep basements and buildings with their own complex micro-climates are required as the experts say future homes may have as many floors below ground as they do above. Urban high rise farms where crops and animals are kept in tall, layered, space-saving structures were seen as one of the most likely to be implemented.  Advances in technology and science would allow for revolutionary developments in the way we live. Therefore we must produce buildings better integrated with surrounding communities and physical contexts. reinforce existing urban assets, such as green corridors and cultural event spaces, whilst responding to topography and natural patterns.
