looks like a broken zipper
Reminds me of my kids slinky she messed up. That building will never be the same after the giant toddler played with it…
Stupid sexy building.
Karlatornet (lit. ‘The Karla Tower’, initially called Polstjärnan) is a skyscraper under construction by Serneke in Lindholmen in Gothenburg, Sweden.
I wish it talked more about the architecture. Im curious if the twist helps with wind.
I know enough about aerodynamics to speak generally about typical designs. But, this isn’t a typical design. Insight needs an aero engineer with some experience.
I think the architecture is really cool because it looks like a twist at first glance, but isn’t.
it looks like a twist at first glance, but isn’t.
It’s four twists
It’s a cut into the exterior that creates an illusion, leaving the core intact. If it was anything different then it’d not be standing.
The overall surface of the facade is twisting. The IGU’s and spandrel panel systems that make up the exterior facade are more than likely not twisting.
So, it’s an illusion made out of entirely untwisted components. Imagine that.
It’s very obvious you’re now trying to make a point about the support structure but the facade of a building is very much real. It looks like a twist because it does a twist. There’s no angle where you realize the windows don’t actually change planes.
I’d say the corners are twisted but the middle part isn’t
