Representing the future development of Venice, the LINK Solar Power Skyscraper aims to provide the geographic area of the laguna of Venice with a new landmark: a link between architecture and urbanism, between the ancient city of Venice and the industrial area named Marghera. A link between function and emotion. Designed by LED Architecture Studio, the project is an architecture-infrastructure, a crucial urban development responding to the present and future needs of this locality. More images and architects’ description after the break.
Defining the skyline of the area through a formal purity, LinkSPS works in the urban scale, representing the connection between the preexisting urban elements and providing the means for their future. It defines a new extended city whilst providing new volumetric resources to house new concepts of social living, based on fluid connections and mixed-use environments.
