دو روز پیش یک کار از وینسنت کالبوت گذاشتم، امروز هم با کار دیگه ای از این معمار در خدمتتون هستم، همون توضیحات پست قبل رو در اینجا هم مجبورم بدم…
برج آگورا که مکانش در تایپه تایوان واقع هستش… متاسفانه زبانم اون قدر خوب نیست که ترجمه کنم، به خاطر همین عینا مطلب رو از سایت دیزاین بوم براتون نقل می کنم… قبلا در مورد معماری سبز و پایدار ایشون در پستهایی براتون توضیحاتی دادم، این پروژه هم همون جوری که از تصاویرش من برداشت کردم در همین راستاس…امیدوارم خوشتون بیاد…

on the last and biggest parcel of land available for residential use in taipei city, vincent callebaut ‘s twisting, foliage-filled ‘agora tower’ will preside
over the rest of the urban xinyin district. the architect, known for his distinct eco-vision, has designed a high-density space that aims at limiting
the ecologic footprint of its inhabitants by forging a symbiotic relationship between the urban dweller and nature. tall planted balconies of
suspended orchards, organic vegetable gardens and and medicinal greenery will take root in the high-performance building. in true
cradle-to-cradle fashion, even the construction process transforms itself; industrial waste will be returned as a ‘technical nutrient’ to be
indefinitely recycled. the helicoidal towers appropriate their form from the structure of DNA, conceptually speaking to the building blocks of life,
as well as dynamism and twinning. four types of housing units form a full level allowing their twisting forms to optimize space for open-air hanging gardens.
the angled apartments additionally offer exceptional views of the bustling city by multiplying the transversal views of the overall east-west rhomboidal pyramid.
corbelled floors provide structure and privacy.

convex and concave curves make up the serpentine tower, surrounded by a luxuriant forest and
interjected by a pedestrian square and aquatic glade. a central circular light well remains fixed and provides ample illumination and ventilation to
the deepest levels of the architecture, namely the car park and swimming pool. the cylindrical void organizes the twisting ‘green core’, a vertical garden
and farm cultivated by the building tenants. a looping band of circulation, comprised of 2 staircases, 4 high speed elevators and 1 car elevator, creates an
entry foyer for each unit. photo-voltaic cells, rainwater filtration systems and phyto-depuration structures complement the morphology of the landscaped balconies.
ascending terraces are open air and enjoy maximum exposure to sunlight, while descending balconies are shielded by the superior level and create optimal
spaces for aromatic gardens. the realization of this building is a testament to the reality that landscape can rebuild itself on the city and that ecologic resilience
need not be an abstraction of far-fetched solutions.
