Is there a more famous skyline? Has a city ever inspired more dreams, more excitement? To look upon the towers of New York City is to witness the greatest sculpture mankind has produced in the history of the world. And two men are building a new masterpiece.

2 World Trade Center in New York City, a BIG design, Squint/Opera production

---

The completion of the World Trade Center will restore the majestic skyline of Manhattan and unite the streetscapes of TriBeCa with the towers Downtown. To complete this urban reunification we propose a tower that will feel equally at home in TriBeCa and the World Trade Center. From TriBeCa, the home of lofts and roof gardens, it will appear like a vertical village of singular buildings stacked on top of each other to create parks and plazas in the sky. From the World Trade Center, the individual towers will appear unified, completing the colonnade of towers framing the 9/11 Memorial. Horizontal meets vertical. Diversity becomes unity.

La vision architecturale d’EuropaCity par Bjarke Ingels et Carlo Ratti

---

CR: [...] what about using a new development in order to test some of these [new technologies], in order to let it evolve almost as a living lab, a place where our future can actually be invented. And in this evolution I think we should also try to engage people, you know, there should be like a collaborative effort, there should be a way where all together we can come and decide how these places we will live in tomorrow will be-

BI: with Grand Paris and with Europa City there’s actually the possibility to once again be as bold as the Parisians used to be when they created the Paris we know today, and think BIG and make BIG experiments to make a sort of Paris 2.0 that in a way sets a new standard for what a city can be.

The city is not just an accumulation of buildings, it’s actually an entire man-made ecosystem, where you design not just the flow of people through the streets but actually the flow of resources through the city. One of the things that are quite unique with a project like Europa City is that we are creating something that is at the scale of the neighborhood in a holistic design. Not that it’s all gonna be the same, but we can actually explore sinergies, so that things that in a normal city would be separate and have no possibility for sinergy, we can actually tie them together, creating and entire man-made ecosystem.

CR: if I imagine about 2024 I think that sharing will be a very powerful engine of urban life. Ultimately this has two very big advantages, is not only efficiency, but is also about the beauty of meeting other people.

BI: the classic monument is mainly about verticality, about how many floors you stack on each other, but I think in Europa City we really try to sort of combine the qualities of an open landscape with the quality of streetscapes of different proportions so it becomes almost like a horizontal monument.

We try to sort of create a lively urban fabric that actually combines radically different streetscapes, sometimes intimate streets, sometimes more generous streets, sometimes you have tall walls around you, sometimes you know like even the roof comes down and kisses the ground and invites you to invade the roofscape, where you can stand in green surroundings and look at the skyline of Paris, or you can dive into the streets and enjoy sort of the pedestrian quality of moving around in a town or in a village.

is molas resort - exclusive residential, sports and hotel park

---

The golf of Is Molas is an experiment showing how man can work with wind erosion and nature. People who love golf do so because they are looking for a place where they can be happy, where they can find peace, a place where buildings are a part of nature and where even artificial nature becomes a part of the landscape.

The most beautiful and most interesting view is the one that looks from the hotel over towards the Pula tower. In this project the hotel complex is like a dream. It is an area that includes shops and a plaza for events. Further on is the suite zone including restaurants and a fitness center with access to the sea.

The plan crescendos from the smallest construction at the beginning to the medium size and larger houses at the end. It is a plan that can be extended and modified as flexibility is one of the main advantages here.

And then there is the beautiful green that these lived-in sculptures are located in. Together the complex represents the ever present point of prospective where the land, the sea and the sky meet. Man has returned to living in sculptures. And these inhabited sculptures have become the new form of modern design. They have superseded the box, the cage, the enclosure, as they have a sense of freedom.

I think we have designed something similar to what Gery Player has done for golf. We have constructed a new geography, and that geography will be the stage, the set, on which the people, the visitors, the golfers, and all those who come here will be the actors.

At the end of the day we do not build for ourselves, we build for mankind.

The Spiral

---

The Spiral will punctuate the Northern end of the Highline, the linear park will appear to carry through into the spiral of the tower, forming an ascending ribbon of lively green spaces, extending the Highline, into the skyline.

A building designed for the people who occupy it, the spiral ensures that every floor of the tower opens up to the outdoors creating hanging gardens and cascading atria, that connect the open floor plate of the ground floor to the summit into a single, uninterrupted work space.

And of course these majestic views of the surrounding city!

Reflections At Keppel Bay Short Documentry By Daniel Libeskind

Architecture is a language informed by its location. That challenges conventions. That redefines our perceptions. Of cities, of spaces, Of luxury. Even of the way we live.

Libeskind - Abu Dhabi

---

Well architecture is one of the great arts, it’s the mother of the arts, it includes life, it’s a spiritual discipline as well as a technical discipline. It’s about leaving something that is permanent.

I was very impressed by Abu Dhabi, its history, its dynamic development. The fact that it’s a place with incredible aspiration, it’s a place creating the future.

I was inspired by the open hand, the hand of generosity, open to the world. And at the same time, the wave of the future. Well first of all it’s uniquely related to that spectacular masterplan, on the canal, across from the corniche, visible and situated in such a way that it will become a sculptural form, visible from 360 degrees.

To be an icon a building has to be rooted in Abu Dhabi, it has to tell the story of the place, it has to link the visible and the invisible, it has to show what is on the ground and what is in the sky. And it has to become a building that connects itself with the hearth and souls of people.
