France is easily one of the world’s most beautiful countries with tons of famous cities; the main one being Paris. The famous city has tons of attractions for tourists to visit that are all worth seeing sometime during a lifetime. The nature and beauty of Paris comes from an old feel with lots of people always out and plenty to do. Whether it’s going to visit the Eiffel Tower or sitting at a sidewalk cafe for some coffee on a nice day, everything is unique in Paris. The city could get slightly more interesting by 2050 with ideas and plans for futuristic green skyscrapers to be built.
Right now, the skyscrapers are simply a developmental idea called “2050 Paris Smart City” and is a plan to reduce 75% of the city’s greenhouse gas emissions by using magnificent skyscrapers. The entire plan would have eight high rise buildings constructed that recycle their own energies through a loop of different systems. They would use solar, hydrodynamic and planted buildings that each have bio-air conditioning systems to be sustainable and eco-friendly.
The towers would be built in the 14th district which is called the “ecological corridor” or Paris and would be perfect for these towers to go. The towers would be called the “antismog towers” which is pretty simple but promotes what they accomplish. In the 15th district there is a plan to build “photosynthesis towers” that are vertical and spiraled which use green algae and other thermodynamic gardens to grow food and house orchards on outdoor balconies.
The entire concept for these towers is a great idea. They are unique and would look interesting enough to attract attention to the area while also helping the environment. There is no guarantee that these will ever be built, but the idea and plan of how it helps the Earth is very interesting and could possibly start a worldwide green architecture trend if they are successfully built.
