Since the beginning of time Humans have been fascinated with gravity-defying megastructures that have dominated the skies leaving a mark for civilizations to come. From the Burj Khalifa to the Empire State building, skyscrapers have been rightly viewed as a strategy to engineer more sustainable cities by emphasizing compact urban spaces.
The role of a modern-day skyscraper has been layered with multiple functions for its users along with the implementation of new innovative technologies to make the building safer, increased energy efficiency, greener, and at the same time with them take on new and exciting shapes.
With this, we have been presented the opportunity today to reinvent the skyscrapers in the relation to their context, community, and urban fabric. IMPACT Competitions invites participants to design an innovative and iconic skyscraper structure that has the impact of establishing itself as a landmark in its surroundings.
