Endless City: the skyscrapers that is a self-contained community in height

The SURE Architecture developed an ambitious and complex project to host residential areas, offices, shops, entertainment and leisure in one building. Appropriately named "Endless City", the project was designed for the reality in londrina, United Kingdom.

The building consists of a series of ramps that connect different sections of the structure to create a vertical city and was designed to reduce environmental impact and increase sustainability through some technological concepts.

When built, the project may be a complete ecosystem and, in theory, allow any person to make your personal life, professional and leisure without leaving this structure.

According to the SURE, the building will save a lot of space in a dense city like London â€" hence the British capital was the first to be designed for this concept.

With more than 300 feet tall, the Endless City will have an area of 165 square meters and its shape maximizes the passive energy and reduces the need for artificial lighting, cooling and heating. "The aim of the design is to design a building that is inviting and a powerful symbol in all directions," said Alina Valcarce, Director of SURE.

The design of the project belies its beauty, but it is unlikely that it will be implemented in the coming years. Or decades.
