Inspirational Asian Cairns by Vincent Callebaut

Belgian architect Vincent Callebaut is widely known for his ideas of re-framing urbanity in a useful and creative way. Recently he has developed a concept to show the natural ecosystems into cities with designs for "Farmscrapers" which are made from piles of giant glass pebbles. This concept implies the development of wind power and solar energy. The development concept was conceived for a specific area, located in China, on the border of Hong Kong. The project proposes the construction of six unusual towers offering office space, housing, and entertainment venues. Each level of "Asian pyramid" is shaped like a pebble and has an impressive amount of green space, which in turn implements the problem of air pollution in cities with high population density.
