4. Meaning / Concept
• Dynamic (of a process or system) characterized by constant change, activity,
progress, or movement.
• Dynamic Architecture / Dynamic Buildings , the start of a new conception in
Architecture , a concept of buildings in motion which can be found in many
shapes such as:
• 1. Static-Dynamic (Form, Textures, Colors).
• 2. Partially-Dynamic (specific spaces, elevations, Interior partitions, Furniture).
• 3. Fully-Dynamic (the whole Building can rotate, revolve, swivel or pivot).

5. Meaning / Concept
These buildings provides the possibility to orient the own space:
- according to the moments of the day (sun & light).
- in relation to the seasons. - in relation to the surrounding
environment (views).
- For the purposes of protection and defense
–or simply to own pleasure.

6. First Rotating Residential Tower
Suite Vollard, 2001
• The Suite Vollard is a rotating residential building
in Curitiba, Parana, Brazil.
• This Apartment Building was Designed by a team
of Architects, headed by Bruno de Franco & David
Fisher.
• This building is the only one of its kind in the
world, as each of the 11 apartments can rotate
360º.

7. • Each apartment can spin individually in any
direction. One rotation takes a full hour.
• The apartment rings rotate around a static core
used for building services, utilities, and all areas
which require plumbing.
• Each apartment was sold for approximately
300,000 $.

9. SAIRIFI HA HOUSE
• Sharifi-ha House by Iranian
architectural firm Nextoffice is a
luxurious home by anyone's
standard.
• The seven-floor residence
boasts an elevator, swimming
pool, and a sizable gym.

10. SAIRIFI HA HOUSE
• More interestingly, it also features three rooms
which resemble large wooden boxes and sit
upon operable rotating platforms.
• Sharifi-ha House's three operable rooms
remain in a flat, or "closed" position during cold
weather.
• However, if the sun comes out, each room can
rotate 90 degrees outwards with the touch of a
button to reveal a terraced area.
• While the house is in its "open" state, there's
also more ventilation and light available to
those inside.

13. Kiefer Technic Showroom, Austria
Dynamic exterior of Kiefer Technic
Showroom in Bad Gleichenberg,
Austria,
• Consists of electric window
shutters made of perforated
aluminum.

14. Kiefer Technic Showroom, Austria
• Unique facade, designed by Ernst Giselbrecht,
• changes throughout the day, transforming the building into a dynamic
sculpture

17. Da Vincci Tower
Dynamic Architecture buildings keep modifying their shape.
As each floor rotates separately, the form of the building changes constantly; you may
not see the same building twice.

18. THE ROTATING TOWER
• Dynamic architecture marks a new era in
architecture. This new approach, based on motion
dynamics, is in fact a challenge to traditional
architecture that until now was based on rigid
buildings.
• In particular, the project is based on three
fundamental concepts: - It is DYNAMIC because each
floor can rotate.
- Independently from the others allowing the building to
change its’ shape continuously, it is GREEN because it
produces.
- Its own energy from the wind and from the sun;
- it is INDUSTRIALLY PRODUCED being made of
prefabricated modules, then assembled on site.

20. The Turning Torso
Turning Torso is a neo-
futurist residential skyscraper in Sweden and the
tallest building in Scandinavia.
• Located in Malmö on the Swedish side of
the Öresund strait,
• It is regarded as the first twisted skyscraper in the
world.
• The project was designed by Spanish architect,
structural engineer, sculptor and painter Santiago
Calatrava
• The tower reaches a height of 190 metres (623 ft)
with 54 storeys and 147 apartments.

21. DETAILS
Turning Torso is based on a sculpture by
Calatrava, called Twisting Torso, which is a
white marble piece based on the form of a
twisting human being.

22. Revolving Restaurants
The Sunsphere ,knoxville
• The first revolving restaurant of US, opened in
1982.
• Fututistic architecture
• The Sunsphere is a 266-foot-tall High-Tech
observation tower.
• The theme of the 1982 Knoxville World’s Fair
was “Energy Turns the World”
• Featuring a gold-colored glass sphere
supported by a hexagonal steel truss tower, the
iconic structure currently houses a public
observation deck, lounge, and private event
spaces

23. Cairo tower, Egypt
• The Cairo Tower is a free-standing concrete
tower in Cairo, Egypt.
• At 187 m, it is the tallest structure in Egypt and
North Africa.

25. Making building turntable
• The basic form of revolving portion of the
building was simple:
• A circular structure containing a platform
rotated around a central core, which held
elevators, kitchens, and so on, designed
to ensure that every table cycled through
a view of the surrounding landscape at a
carefully calibrated speed

26. Dynamic Revolution

27. Dr. David Fisher
• Dr. David Fishers is an Italian Architect
based in Florence owning a design
firm called “Infinity Design”.
• Honors at Faculty of Architecture in
Florence University.
• Taught as faculty in the same and in
structural engineering department.
• Awarded PhD Honoris causa by the
Prodeo Institute at Columbia University
(NY).
• Not a traditional architect as he
worked mainly in the field of
construction redefining the technical
and technological extremes of
building.
• Involved in restoration of ancient
buildings. Pioneer in the field of
prefabrication and dynamic buildings.

28. Dynamic Revolution The Fourth
Dimension !
• The greatest innovation, which
characterizes David Fisher’s
tower of endless shapes is
• Introduction of the fourth
dimension
• Time, as an essential part of the
building philosophy.

29. The Rotating Tower brings three main futuristic
aspects, three revolutions:
1. The shape of the building
changes continuously:
• Buildings as Part of the Environment,
adjusting to the sun and the wind
• Each floor, in fact, can rotate separately,
changing every second the shape of the
building.
• The Rotating Skyscraper takes on shapes
imposed by time and life, never
appearing the same in any two given
moments. It is the first building to have
four dimensions: Designed by TIME,
shaped by LIFE.

30. 2. The method of construction
• It is in fact the first building produced in a factory, giving construction a new
industrial approach.
• The entire building, aside from the concrete core, is made of prefabricated units
which arrive to the construction site completely finished, including flooring,
water piping, air conditioning and all finishes.
• These units, made of steel, aluminium, carbon
fiber and other high quality modern materials,
are installed “mechanically” on site.
• The building, made of single separate floors,
is structurally sound and flexible at the same
time, being of very high seismic resistance.

31. 3. The combining technology and luxury with
environment:
• The skyscraper's wind turbines, positioned horizontally between each floor, and
solar ink on its many roofs will produce energy making the tower the first self-
powered building.
• Thus the Rotating Tower, a unique architectural solution, becomes also a "power
station" producing green energy for the city.

32. DYNAMIC INTERIOR

34. Eco-Friendly Dynamic Towers
• The Dynamic Tower is an innovative
green building.
• With wind turbines fitted horizontally
between each rotating floor, the 80-
story building will have up to 79 wind
turbine systems, making it a truly
green power plant.
• While traditional vertical wind turbines
have environmental and social effects,
including the need for roads to build
and maintain them,
• in addition to the noise and the
obstruction of views, the Dynamic
Tower's wind turbines are practically
invisible and extremely quiet due to
their special shape and the carbon
fiber material of which they are
composed.

35. Sustainable Dynamic Towers
• Dynamic buildings are a result of a decade-long experience in the research of
innovative building components, capable of interacting with climate conditions
and regulating energy flows through the building surface.
• The “intelligent” building is thus one whose external components become
elements of thermal self-regulation, ensuring indoor comfort while reducing
energy consumption.

36. Conclusion
• Dynamic architecture is futurusitic architecture that can make
impact on future architecture
• On side of sustainable architecture, the building be of self energy
dependent by producing energy,
• Greeen architecture is positive aspect of dynamic architecture, it
should be concerned toward nature saving rather than destroying
it.
• Mass movement of dynamic architecture if preserved leads to
impact on daily life of people
