Green Towers

The Green Tower Project, also known as Bosco Verticale, is a groundbreaking sustainable residential development located in Milan, Italy. Designed by architect Stefano Boeri, the Green Tower Project consists of two towers covered in over 20,000 trees and plants, making it one of the world's largest vertical forests.

The primary goal of the Green Tower Project is to create a sustainable and environmentally friendly living space while also improving the quality of life for residents. The extensive use of vegetation helps to clean the air, regulate the microclimate, and absorb carbon dioxide, making the surrounding area more pleasant and healthy for everyone.

In terms of architecture, the Green Tower Project is a stunning example of sustainable design. The buildings are designed to be highly efficient, with features such as solar panels, rainwater collection systems, and natural ventilation. The buildings are also designed to be adaptable to changing environmental conditions, with adjustable shading systems and green roofs that can be used to regulate the temperature inside the buildings.

The Green Tower Project is more than just a sustainable residential development, however. It is also a symbol of hope for a more sustainable future. The project has received worldwide recognition for its innovative and environmentally friendly approach, and has inspired other cities around the world to pursue similar projects.

Overall, the Green Tower Project is a true masterpiece of sustainable architecture, setting a new standard for environmentally responsible design. Its innovative use of vegetation and sustainable technologies, combined with its beautiful and functional design, make it a model for cities everywhere to follow

Oblivion Sky Tower

A Futuristic Modern Architecture Box (dubbed the Sky Tower) nestled in the surreal setting above the clouds in the (futurist post apocalyptic) movie Oblivion  (2013) written and directed by Joseph Kosinski . The home takes some obvious inspiration from the Stahl House aka Case Study # 22 by Architect Pierre Koenig . The home has some obvious improvements with the the extended helipad over the see through acrylic infinity pool. The foundation of the home is on a unbelievably thin single (steel?) column that seems to be unaffected by the wind throughout the movie. The Director Joseph Kosinski conceived of the sky tower design with early 3D modeling renderings that he made. Joseph Kosinski graduated from Columbia University with a degree in Architecture that explains the strong modern design elements in his work. Kosinski admits that his production design team refined his early ideas into finished reality . The set is a crisp clean design and the frameless g...

Post Tensioned Cables

Image
The benefits for using post tensioned cables in concrete our infinite, but the most dramatic is thinner clear spans that would not otherwise be achieved. For a detailed description about what post tensioning is you can follow this link . I will be describing in this article the installation of a post tensioned slab. When building a concrete slab with post tension system a deck is required as a form for the cables and concrete. Concrete Deck w/ Electrical Boxes Installed This large deck shown has a board form finish inlayed on top of the plywood decking so that when the concrete is poured it will mirror the surface. In the picture you can also see that there is hundreds of electrical boxes laid in advance in preparation for laying the post tensioned cables in there planned locations as designated by the structural engineer. Post Tension Cable Rolls The cables are brought onto the site in a rolled forms. First the workers layout the locations of...

32 Simple and Basic Design Ideas of Frank Lloyd Wright

Image
I was recently reading an article from the September issue of 1956 House and Home and was astounded to see an interesting FLLW article with tips for the average home builder. As I was reading through the article I was realizing that those tips and advise were still just as pertinent today as it was in 1956. The particular house the article refers to is the Zimmerman house built in Manchester, New Hampshire. The home is part of a series of homes that Wright built known as the Unisonian Homes that were low cost homes for moderate income families. 32 Simple and Basic Design Ideas of Frank Lloyd Wright 1. Stress the Horizontals. (a) Stretch the roof line. (b) Keep the fascia in one straight line except for a good reason. (c) Define a strong middle line. 2. Don't waste a big overhang on the north, and don't feel you must use the same roof pitch on both sides. 3. Keep the roof line low. 4. Don't build a whole wall and punch holes in it for your windows.
