The 'super projects' were forgotten because ... ahead of time

Even the greatest buildings in the world at the present time will easily be usurped if super projects ahead of this era are realized!

Hyperbuiding is a 'super project' proposed by Rem Koolhaas architect in 1996, to address the problem of population explosion along with high demand for energy consumption in the Thai capital, Bangkok.Specifically, Hyperbuiding will serve as a closed urban area, with the main building being a huge apartment building for 120,000 people (calculated, this project only accounts for 3% of the area compared to building a private house for 120,000 people).Along with accommodation, workplaces, play areas and utility services will be built around as satellites to cater to the needs of residents in Hyperbuiding, thereby reducing the energy supply. for moving.

The Illinois is considered to be the most impressive design of the master architect Frank Lloyd Wright, which he mentioned in his book in 1957. If it was really built 'The Illinois' would be a giant tower. beautiful and beautiful and become a symbol of the city of Chicago (USA).Functionally, The Illinois will be home to 100,000 people along with enough space for 20,000 cars and 180 helicopters.Another great thing is that this tower will have an elevator with speeds of up to 96 km / h.However, because the estimated cost is so large, The Illinois is still on the page so far.

You might be surprised to learn that this pyramid's construction is a proposed idea to build in Japan. Specifically, Shimizu Pyramid will be a complex of housing, offices, shopping, service for about 1 million people, located right in the Gulf of Mexico.In addition, the project is also calculated to withstand storms, earthquakes, tsunamis (occurring quite frequently in Japan).Unfortunately, although it was born in 2004 (later than the works over decades), the idea of ​​Shimizu Pyramid was still far ahead of its time.And so far, we have not found the construction plan as well as the optimal materials to realize this great project.

Known cities - architect Ron Herron - is perhaps one of the most 'timeless' ideas for urbanism.From the mid-60s of the last century, when the personal computer was not born, the architect proposed the idea of ​​closed urban areas in a giant cocoon-like structure.More specifically, this cocoon will be placed on the legs and use advanced machines (similar to artificial intelligence) to move anywhere.In addition, these knowledgeable cities can connect with each other to become a megacity!

New York City of America, at the present time, has possessed a huge number of skyscrapers famous all over the world. However, the most impressive building is probably what is still on the drawing! The work mentioned here is the Attraction hotel by architect Antoni Gaudi (father of a series of iconic and unique works).The Attraction Hotel was designed by Gaudi in the early 20th century, following the orders of two merchants.Based on this drawing, the hotel will be a collection of cone-shaped blocks and stand out with a giant star at the top of the tower.If completed, Attraction will probably be the tallest and unique building in New York City.
