What pops into your mind when thinking about modern
architecture and their architects? Sleek lines, mind-blowing structures,
and the hip, uber-modern creator of it all. Well, that is not the case
for some of these crazy buildings. Surely, the creators of Basket House,
Gag Building or the Conch dwelling weren’t your usual modern-day
architects.

Have you ever seen a building in motion that changes its shape? Sounds unbelievable but not to Dr. David Fisher. This building will never appear the same twice.
It is fantastic, but you will have the choice of waking up to sunrise in your bedroom and enjoying sunsets over the ocean at dinner.
In addition to being such an incredible engineering miracle it will produce energy for itself and even for other buildings because it will have wind turbines fitted between each rotating floor (picture 2). So an 80-story building will have up to 79 wind turbines, making it a true green power plant.
