We Occupy An Empty Chinese Skyscraper With 57floors. Help Us Build It’s Interior!

ADVERTISEMENT

Remember the tallest most sustainable (90% recyclable) building in the world, built in just 19days? Well it’s called J57 and it stands in Changsha, Hunan China.

We have just got hold of this building and it’s all empty. Therefore we have launched “SkyCity Challenge 17”, in order to get the attention of individuals from around the whole world to design it’s interior together in order to create the first vertical community in the world. We believe our approach might affect the way the cities are built in the future. We will award the best 17 teams and invite them over to China to construct it.

For more information visit our website at http://www.skycity.net/

We are asking creative people, architects, designers, artists, engineers, scientists, conservationists, ambient warriors, tribesmen, digital nomads, craftsmen or basically anyone with great ideas from around the globe to take part in SkyCity Challenge 17. Our climate is changing, squalor, nationalism and inequality is rising, people are constantly moving into cities and the demand for a better and more sustainable living in urban areas continues to grow.

From the top of the skyscraper to the world.

...Kate Leung, the building IS in China... I really love this concept and design but the cost and work needed is a lot. How about a trade i.e. time spent in exchange for rent or rooms.
