Dynamic Architecture - Buildings That Change Shapes in Dubai

Some things are simply way cool. Italian architect David Fisher has pushed the envelope of what we know as modern day architecture and has designed buildings that change shapes and are entirely self propelled. It’s Dynamic Architecture and it’s the way of the future. The World’s First Dynamic Architecture building is set to be built in Dubai and another one after that in Moscow. New York is possibly next.

The Dynamic Architecture buildings will be powered by 48 wind turbines and solar panels, capturing the nature’s power high in the sky, and will be constantly in motion, constantly changing shapes. Using solely renewable energy, the Dubai Dynamic Architecture building will produce roughly $7 million worth of electrical energy every year. That’s enough to supply power for all of its needs as well as several surrounding buildings without any pollution.

David Fisher designed it so there are wind turbines between each floors, each of them producing 0.3 Mega Watts of electrical energy. Dubai gets around 4,000 wind hours every year, so this Dynamic Architecture building will be able to produce 1,200,000 kWh of energy.

The future of architecture is here and it’s called Dynamic Architecture. David Fisher architect is the man. Dubai is ahead of the game. They are crazy there. They’ve built Palm Islands there, man made islands in the shape of a palm tree that you can see from space. United Arabian Emirates are the shit when t comes to attractions. I wish it wasn’t so shitty to travel there. Have you heard of the English guy who was imprisoned in the UAE and charged with possession of opium after they’ve found a poppy seed on his shirt from a bagel he ate at Heathrow airport in London? Another guy has a bit of a marijuana leaf stuck to his shoe and is still in jail. I mean… it’s all pretty in Dubai and shit, but I’d be creeped out to go there. The Dynamic Architecture building will kick ass though.

The mindblowing video of the shape changing dynamic architecture by architect David Fisher is below. It’s a fascinating ride to watch.
