The Vortex Tower was the working name of a London skyscraper design by Make Architects, a London-based business headed by Ken Shuttleworth. The building would have risen to a height of 980 feet (300 m) with 70 floors. The Vortex Tower was proposed for the edge of the City of London outer eastern fringe, but was never built. The planned shape of the Vortex Tower was a hyperboloid of revolution. The structure would have twisted into a spiral shape with a tapering centre and wide base. The project was based on a different concept, with rotation enabling the use of leaning columns as straight structural elements of hyperboloid. Shuttleworth expressed surprise when the design was compared to that of the similar Kobe Port Tower, built in Japan in 1963.He said "I haven't seen it before and it was not a source of inspiration for the Vortex." and noted that the Kobe designers "did not use the full envelope of the building", and that the towers would be different colours.

Представляет собой «вихреобразный» (vortex — вихрь) небоскрёб высотой 300 метров (70 этажей). Форма башни Вортекс — гиперболоид. Структура башни — гиперболоидная сетчатая оболочка c широкой базой. Такая концепция конструкции башни позволяет использовать прямые наклонные направляющие криволинейного гиперболоида в качестве несущих силовых элементов небоскрёба. Постройка башни Вортекс планировалась на восточной окраине Лондона. (ru) |
