Finalist 2011 Skyscraper Competition Lee dongjin, Park Jinkyu, Lee Jeongwoo South Korea In the last few years we have seen many projects for vertical agriculture but the Circular Symbiosis Tower is the first skyscraper that proposes a vertical farm for actual livestock. The main concept is to create a new habitat to raise cattle within the city. The skyscraper consists of spiraling platforms or grass fields where cows will be free to roam.

City-like Voronoi Skyscraper. Finalist 2011 Skyscraper Competition André Serpa, Bernardo Daupiás Alves, Egle Bazaraite, Jutta Rentsch, Marco Braizinha Portugal The main idea of this proposal is to create a skyscraper that could be defined as a city by itself.
It combines the density and vibrant life of the contemporary city with the tranquility of the suburbs. The central part of the structure is conceived as the city, where offices, commerce, entertainment, and transportation areas will be located. A spiraling system of vertical transportation will communicate all levels without the need of cars. At the edges of the structure the residential units will be located. The Skyscraper structure is made out of a concrete and steel core while the structural skin is primarily steel frames that follow a cell-like pattern that allows for large spans that accommodate the residential units.

First Place 2011 Skyscraper Competition Atelier CMJN Julien Combes, Gaël Brulé France Conceived as a giant turbine the LO2P skyscraper would be located in New Delhi, one of the most polluted cities in the world due to the exponential increase in population and cars -it is estimated that number of cars grows by one-thousand every day. The idea behind this skyscraper is to recycle the old cars and use them as building material for the new structure. The building is designed as a giant lung that would clean New Delhi’s air through a series of large-scale greenhouses that serve as filters. Another set of rotating filters capture the suspended particles in the air while the waste heat and carbon dioxide from the recycling center are used to grow plants that in turn produce bio-fuels.

Hydro-thermal Skyscraper in Taipei. Finalist 2011 Skyscraper Competition Wendy Teo Boon Ting, Linda Hagberg United Kingdom Located in Taipei, Taiwan, engulfing a central part of River Danshui and the Taipei Mainstation, HydroThermal Organ is a recreational spa and a new transport hub that functions as a first landmark on approaching Taipei. Seeking to create a physical and mental link between the city and nature, the proposal uses the water from the river to extract heat from the transportation infrastructure.
It replaces the existing river buffer wall with a filtering system that heals the polluted river water and a landscape that allows different levels of water to enter the site. This technology is based on the potential temperature difference between river water and the transport infrastructure. The two products from this heat extraction process, hot water and steam, are used in the landscape and Spa Hotel for aesthetic quality and hot baths. -> EVOLO SKYSCRAPERS 2 - Limited Edition Book.
