ipdesigner Posted September 19, 2004 Share Posted September 19, 2004 *awesome!! *i appreciate alot the design!, you made it by yourself? im just afraid if these could stand?. architecturally, its not viable that his could happen, with its slenderness and delicate design! Where will this be constructed? Anyway, nowadays everything is possible.. *keep posting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbr Posted September 19, 2004 Share Posted September 19, 2004 I see no problems with the viability of them, in fact they seem perfectly reasonable to me. Nice job on the images, I think they complement the design nicely. The design is very nice. It's interesting, although it has a feeling of some kind of vertebrae-thing, which I am personally not a fan of (but that's purely subjective, I think the design was successful). Good luck with school. I think you may be surprised to find that large office buildings won't come into the picture for years (they have to be the most standardized program out there), if at all.

oyie Posted September 19, 2004 Share Posted September 19, 2004 Great design. i also doubt the viability considering structural factors. but what the heck everything is possible now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poco Posted September 19, 2004 Share Posted September 19, 2004 I am no architect so I dont know if it wouldnt fall over with winds reaching 100 km/h or more but I really like the design; its elegant, pretty and interesting to look at imho.

TheAllusionisst Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 davin, Great to see you are pursuing this itteration of the design, it has a lot of potential. You guys should see the other version he is pursuing for the "Architectural Wonder" contest. This version is elegant and I think you show a tremendous amount of design talent and think you will do well in school and in the 'real world' after you graduate. Very nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Schroeder Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 This is a completly viable design, in fact its already in production. The Turning Torso design by Santiago Calatrava. Here's the website for the Turning Torso. http://www.turningtorso.com/e_default.asp Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Da_RoCk Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 hi, that design reminds me of calatravas twisted building, i dont exactly know the name but i guess he is also in the process of making one. I guess with your core, everything can revolve there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STRAT Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 nice twisting idea m8, by why have them tapering towards each other as the get to the top? looks like structurally that improssibly defies gravity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voltaire_ira Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 yup..very nice design indeed.i also believe this design will stand considering that the core is quite sturdy.im no structural engineer, but just by looking at the form, its quite sturdy. nice render also.
