Dubai, UAE
Hani Rashid, of Asymptote Architecture, talked about the change and possibilities of tall building design due to the desire to build new form and meaning in architecture at the CTBUH 8th World Congress in Dubai. Tall Building design, has been traditionally understood through an assessment of structural and engineering solutions coupled with the architects’ domain of floorplans, core and curtainwall skin. Today architects are embarking on a new phase in building design, collaboration and manifestation that is clearly centered on and developing an even greater understanding and integration of the ways architecture is conceived, iterated, fabricated and implemented.
