A Skyscraper Carved by the Sun's Rays #design

Chicago-based firm Studio Gang recently unveiled their own plans for a new residential construction that not only offers its occupants generous light exposure, but also extends the benefit to the surrounding area. At the corner of 14th Street and 10th Avenue, the firm’s “Solar Carve Tower” will sit directly between the Hudson River and the High Line, one of New York City’s most prominent public green spaces. Rather than impede the sun’s path–and ruin the High Line’s mojo–the structure’s glassy, gem-like facade features a unique, sculpted form that reflects light down onto the park, bathing visitors in that vitamin D goodness.
