Real Estate That Changes and Moves as You Wish: Coming Soon to Dubai, Moscow, and New York City!

When you were a child, you probably had or played with a slinky. You probably remember how you could twist and spin a slinky in a million different ways to create some crazy looking tubular shapes. Well now you may be able to do the same thing with your home! Today in Dubai, a new building was unveiled called the Dynamic Tower which will be 80 stories tall and be able to adjust its shape at any given moment. Each floor will be able to spin independently to change that floors view or to change the shape of the entire building! The picture to the left shows different configurations that the tower might have. I guess that if you wake up and decide you don’t like the ocean view of your bedroom that you can twist it around for a desert or city view! A part of me wonders what it will sound like when the entire building is rotating. Will clients feel it rotate?
The building is truly a new study in the way that high rise buildings are built. Not just the movement mechanism, but the actual construction methods are very different. Much of the building will be built off site by a team of 600 technicians creating modular parts that will be put together on site! A team of 80 technicians will consturct the building on site which is planned for a 2010 completion. This is a far cry from the normal 2000 people it normally takes to construct a large sky scraper of this size!
Check out www.DyanmicArchitecture.net to read all about this companies imaginative ideas and to reserve your new apartment in the sky! Be prepared, units start at $3,000 per square foot. That is ruffly $4 million to $40 million per unit! I want to the listing agent on those units! However, I don’t want to live in Dubai!

I cannot imagine how loud it will be! Also – what if you change your view too fast? Will you have speed? Can you imagine throwing things off the shelf… In an earthquake would it spin? I’d love to try it though!
