James Law’s desert-bound cybertecture
By Design Daily Team,
“Planet Earth embodies the very essence of the ecosystem that we live in,” wrote architect James Law in his project overview for his “cybertecture” building the Technosphere. That's why it comes as no surprise the Technosphere looks much like a globe and in fact, functions on ecosystem principals such as recycling water and tapping into the solar properties of the sun. The mixed-use, high rise, high-density design is destined for Dubai and includes offices, a hotel and an exhibition hall.
