TROPICAL TALL: ADVANCING ECOLOGICAL DESIGN IN HIGHRISE ARCHITECTURE.

Khulna University

Project idea

THE design of a high-rise building doesn’t just shape it’s own silhouette ,but redefines the urban fabric -transforming streets,sky and the way we experience space ,connectivity and community in the modern metropolis.Basically the project is considerred as a tropical tall building respecting the climate and energy issues.

DESIGN CONSIDERATION:
Layered Green Terraces:
Each level has expansive green terraces filled with native plants and trees, creating a vertical garden effect.

Integration of Green Spaces:
Sky Gardens,Rooftop Gardens,Vertical Greenery
Shared Amenities:
Common areas such as rooftop gardens, pools, and fitness centers are strategically placed to encourage interaction among residents.
Sky Parks: Multiple green spaces or parks are distributed throughout the building, providing residents with outdoor areas for relaxation and recreation.
Solar Energy: Rooftop solar panels AND FACADE SOLAR on each pod contribute to the building's energy needs.
Open Floor Plans: Flexible interior layouts allow for customization of residential or office spaces.
Glass Façade: Floor-to-ceiling glass panels create a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces while maximizing natural light.
Rainwater Harvesting: A system captures rainwater for irrigation and non-potable uses within the building.
Climate-Responsive Design:
Shading Strategies,Orientation,Shading Elements.
Permeable Facades:
Use materials like perforated panels or louvers to allow airflow without compromising privacy.
