Eco Factor: Sustainable skyscraper equipped with cutting-edge green technologies.
The Evolving Skyscraper has been designed by Vahan Misakyan for the city of Yerevan in Armenia. The structure features geodesics that form three piercing towers linked by habitable bridges at the top and the bottom. The skyscraper’s three towers provide space for different programs that include offices, residences and hotels.
The concept proposes to create soft transitions between vertical and horizontal planes by creating structures that peel off from the ground and transform into habitable areas. A transportation hub has been envisioned for the entire region that emerges from one of the structures while a bridge and a recreational park emerge from the second one.
The building incorporates the latest in green technology and features intelligent skin controls which enable light incidence and natural ventilation to be controlled via mechanical openings. Moreover, the skin also includes rainwater collection systems, photovoltaic panels and wind turbines to generate on-site energy.
