🎋Taijitu – Eco-Parametric Tai-Chi-Chuan Palace, Shenyang, 2024, designed by Vincent Callebaut.

Entre un bâti signature et un biomimétisme intelligent, Vincent Callebaut est un visionnaire urbain que je suis depuis longtemps. Je rêve de voir un de ces concepts à @VilledeNice : un groupe scolaire, un palais des expo., un musée bioclimatiques et bioinspirés ? #Biomimetic

Agora Garden, An Ecologocal Residential Tower in Taiwan Agora Garden, also known as Tao Zhu Yin Yuan, is an eco-friendly residential tower located in Taipei, Taiwan. Designed by Belgian architect Vincent Callebaut, this unique building is notable for its striking twisted, DNA-like structure and sustainable design principles. Key features of Agora Garden include: 1. Twisted Design The building's double-helix shape is not just an architectural statement; it also helps maximize exposure to sunlight for all apartments and provides residents with panoramic views of the city. 2. Vertical Forest The tower is designed to support substantial greenery on every level. Around 23,000 trees, shrubs, and plants are incorporated into the structure, forming a vertical forest. This greenery helps absorb CO2 and contributes to improving air quality, creating a natural microclimate around the building. 3. Sustainable Materials The tower is built using eco-friendly materials. Its construction incorporates energy-saving systems, solar power, and rainwater recycling, significantly reducing the building’s environmental footprint. 4. Energy Efficiency Agora Garden is designed to be self-sustaining in terms of energy, using renwable energy sources such as solar panels and wind turbines. It also integrates a smart energy management system to reduce overall energy consumption. 5. Eco-Luxury The residential units are designed with sustainability in mind, but they also provide luxury living spaces with high-end amenities. The tower serves as an innovative example of sustainable architecture, combining cutting-edge design with green living solutions in an urban environment.

May 2025 be the year our buildings are smarter than our smartphones, greener than our smoothies and more sustainable than our New Year's resolutions ! Let's prove that "green" is not just a color, but a way of life by exploring the potential of nature-based solutions !

TAO ZHU YIN YUAN, Residential Tower by @vincentcallebautarchitectures Location: Taipei, Taiwan The Tao Zhu Yin Residential Tower built in Taipei Yuan is a true climate hero wrapped in a Feng Shui garden. It is a bioclimatic architecture which is sculpted according to the path of the sun and the axis of the prevailing winds. It is a passive project which is naturally ventilated by geothermal energy thanks to two wind chimneys integrated into the central core. It is a biophilic architecture that brings more than 23,000 plants, shrubs, and trees to the heart of the city, absorbing up to 135 tons of CO2 from the atmosphere each year. It is a vertical forest which is watered drop by drop using gray water recycled in situ in a phytopurification lagoon. It is an intergenerational habitat, without structural walls & columns, and without technical shafts inside the apartments for maximum flexibility and reversibility and to live better together. It is a natural, biobased and geobased materiality, which establishes the local ecosystem through the cradle to cradle charter applied in the choice of wood and stone species. Finally, it is an anti-seismic tower, which bends but does not break like a reed, built with a minimum of concrete, to resist the shock waves of earthquakes up to 9.0 on the Richter scale.
