| Summary |
"In downtown Guangzhou, China, one of the greenest structures on earth is rising. Known as Pearl River Tower, the 71-storey building relies solely on wind and sunlight for its power supply. Roger Frechette, one of the world's most famous designers of sustainable buildings details his conception about tomorrow's architecture, and his work in coordination with the Chinese teams to make this dream come true. Mr Ciu, manager of the Chinese construction teams, explains the numerous challenges and subtleties behind this gigantic construction site. Let's go to the heart of the action and take a front row seat in the creation of the world's greenest skyscraper"--Container |
