THYSSEN KRUPP ELEVATOR COMPETITION - Tuuli
Firm
Type
PAST, WIND
THE FINNISH WORD TUULI CAN BE TRANSLATED AS MEANING ‘WIND’ OR A BREEZE AND IT
IS THIS NATURAL RESOURCE THAT IS THE FOUNDING PRINCIPLE OF OUR PROPOSAL. THE
CREATION OF A MODERNWINDTOWER IN DUBAI, AT A SCALE NEVER SEEN BEFORE IS BASIS FOR OUR DESIGN FOR A
LANDMARKSTRUCTURE.
BY FOLLOWING THE DESIGN PRINCIPLES OF A TRADITIONAL WINDTOWER WE HAVE
LOCATED THE FUNCTIONAL, HABITABLE SPACES UNDER GROUND AND FROM A CENTRAL WATER
POOL A TOWER RISES TO THE SKY. THIS TOWER NOT
ONLY ACTS AS THE COOLING SYSTEM FOR THESE SPACES BUT ALSO AS A EMBLEM AND A
WATCH-TOWER.
PRESENT, LINK, WATER
THE PRISMATIC WIND TOWER FORM GROUNDING OUR PROPOSAL TO THE SITE, RISES AS A
HOLLOW SPIKE FROM THE GROUND. THE CONSEQUENCE OF THIS MOVEMENT, SHAPE THE
TERRAIN. THE LANDSCAPE FORM IS A REACTION OF THE MOVEMENT OF A SPIKE PIERCING
THE GROUND AND REVEALING A WATER RESERVOIR. IT IS THIS LINK BETWEEN THE ANCIENTWINDTOWERS FOUND IN
DUBAI AND THEIR LINK WITH WATER AND WATER RESERVOIRS THAT IS THE
PRINCIPLE OF OUR FACADE DESIGN. THE BUBBLING EFFECT OF PIERCING A WATER PIPE IS
MIMICKED IN THE FACADE AND WILL BE ILLUMINATED THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT.
FUTURE, FLOW, SUSTAINABILITY
THE BUILDING IS LOCATED IN THE CORNER OF THE SITE AND IS LINKED TO THE PEOPLE
FLOWS THROUGH THE PARK BY TWO LARGE RAMPS ALLOWING PEOPLE TO CASUALLY FLOW THROUGH
THE BUILDING. THE RAMPS ARE CONNECTED TO THE LANDSCAPE AND PROVIDE A FREE AREA
AROUND THE BUILDING.
THE USE OF A WIND TOWER AS THE DEIGN BASIS IS NOT ONLY LINKING OUR DESIGN
PROPOSAL TO THE ANCIENT HISTORY OF THE UNITED ARAB EMIRATES BUT ALSO TO THE
FUTURE AND TO THE USE OF ENVIRONMENTALLY SUSTAINABLE DESIGN, THINKING AND
ENERGY USE. THIS LAND MARK DESIGN WILL PROVIDE DUBAI WITH A EMBLEM
OF THE PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE. IT WILL BE SOMEWHERE WHERE PEOPLE FROM ALL
OVER THE WORLD WILL BE ABLE TO SEE AND FEEL HOW SUSTAINABLE DESIGN REALLY WORKS.
