David Fisher has designed a wind-powered rotating skyscraper & what's unbelievable is the claim that the tower can power itself besides ten other similar sized buildings.
Although the technical details of the wind-power system are sketchy, at best, the architect David Fisher, has proposed that towers be built in a new way - basically by stacking platters on a central concrete core, causing a wind turbine between every floor & secondly, rotating floors.
"While the rotating floors have gotten quite a bit of press, really the most amazing claim is that the tower could provide all its own electricity. If true, this design could indeed mean a remarkable and sustainable future for skyscrapers.
Totally awesome! And, as Fisher predicts that the first tower will begin construction in Dubai in the next six months, and is currently talking with the City of Chicago about their own twirling tower, it may not be as far-fetched as it seems."
