The Editt Tower, Singapore

If you work in a skyscraper everyday, you might seem disconnect from the world way below you. Everywhere you look there are offices upon offices and conference rooms. This environment can get bland and a bit depressing. A bright green future, will require cities to become innovative. One example of this is the planning of Editt Tower in Singapore. This 26 story building is designed to minimize the disconnect workers experience in their offices. The building will have many layers of plants and mini parks as well as natural ventilation and solar panels. I want to go visit when it's built!

    This is very cool. Have you seen the structures by the entrance to the parking garage on Research Drive? This reminds me of those, except taken to the extreme.

    No, I don't think I have. I'll have to check them out.
