"Building in Motion" to hit Miami's Skyline?
There have been talks of architect David Fisher bringing his Dynamic Tower to Miami's Skyline...
David Fisher's Dynamic Tower is the first building in motion that will change its shape and add a fourth dimension to architecture: Time. The shape will be determined by each floor's direction of rotation, speed, acceleration and the timing; with timing meaning how each floor rotates compared to the other. The rotation speed will be between 60 minutes and 24 hours for one revolution.
Residents, if they own the entire floor, are able to control the speed and direction of the rotation by voice command. One can have breakfast watching the sunrise, lunch viewing the open sea, and dinner overlooking the lights of the city - all from the same place inside their unit. The other floors will be commanded by the architect, by the mayor or whoever will have the password to the computer program that will give the building a different shape at every glance.
According to Dr Fisher, these buildings will be designed by all of us, at any given moment, and will be shaped according to our needs, our present concepts of design and quite importantly, our moods - as an expression of freedom, beginning for the first time in history to control the shape of our homes and cities.
Since the ancient Egyptians built the pyramids 4,000 years ago, one stone on top of another, brick on top of brick, not much has changed in the world of building construction. With the start of the Industrial Revolution around 1770, products began to be manufactured in factories using industrial methods. In 1889, the use of steel was pioneered for the construction for the Eiffel Tower in Paris, and beginning in 1905, reinforced concrete was introduced; but today, buildings are essentially still built on site as they were 4,000 years ago.
Dr. David Fisher's revolutionary Dynamic Tower, the first building in motion, is the first skyscraper to be entirely assembled in a factory from pre-fabricated parts. The factory-made construction process offers many of the advantages of any modern industrial product: conserving energy, reducing construction time and dramatically cutting costs. Each individual unit is completely finished at the Factory and exported worldwide to the assembly site , ready for quick and efficient installation.

“I am honored to receive this award from the Developers & Builders Alliance, as I believe strongly in the group’s stated goal of improving our global economy by fostering prosperous worldwide business relationships through successful projects and innovation,” Dr. Fisher stated.
This month, the Dynamic Tower was recognized by TIME Magazine as one of the “Best Inventions of the Year”. Dr. Fisher is currently meeting with top developers to discuss a possible Dynamic Tower in Miami.

Mary Ann,
The building will actually be self-powered! Pretty crazy...
The Dynamic Tower, the world's first building in motion, takes the concept of Green buildings to the next level, generating electricity for itself with a possible surplus for other nearby buildings, making it the first skyscraper designed to be entirely powered by wind and sun.
With wind turbines fitted horizontally between each rotating floor, an 80-story building will have up to 79 wind turbine systems, making it a true Green power plant. While traditional vertical wind turbines have environmental and social effects, including the need for roads to build and maintain them plus their noise and obstruction of views, the Dynamic Tower's wind turbines are practically invisible and extremely quiet due to their special shape and the carbon fiber material of which they are composed.

HAHA... you know you're always invited. We'll have our first ROTATING MUL PARTY! lol
Mary Ann Ruiz said:i'm such a pessimist! hahaha. i mean considering i fight all day with condo associations for pretty simple stuff (you would think) i'm not so hopeful. lolol. but if you buy a unit can i come over?
