Creating a Green New Layer of Urban Life for Tokyo

Sky-Terra, elevated 1,600 feet above ground, is a new level for the city with plazas formed by the roofs of individual skyscraper building units that join and structurally support each other. This structural system also allows for their narrow bases. The building itself becomes a modular element that can be reconfigured in a variety of urban mega-structures with the potential to be implemented in any existing metropolitan environment.

Designer: Joanna Borek-Clement (United States)

Material: Steel/Concrete/Curtain Wall System
