Dr. David Fisher is the designer of the Dynamic Architecture - a wind-powered rotating skyscraper in Dubai. It has 420 meters high and 80 floors that can rotate independently.
48 wind turbines will be installed between each floor to make electricity for the people who will live there.
The rotating skyscraper will be built in parallel stages instead of from the ground up, with a solid concrete core. Each floor will be prefabricated in segments by a factory.
More info about this project can be found here.
Dubai is one of the fastest growing places in the world. Just look a little how it will look like in 2009. Pretty amazing , huh?
