Spiraltower
The first climate-neutral high-rise attraction in the world
The Spiral Tower is the ultimate landmark for a modern city. This architectural eye catcher is sustainable and has low energy use. Each cabin regenerates energy like an electric car. The tower operation is steered by an intelligent control system. The cabins have smart windows with augmented city information. Suited for social distancing: clearly separated visitors groups per cabin. The spiral tower is green, with an integrated windmill and solar panels. It is made with an affordable lightweight steel construction. And most important: a uniquely small footprint. The Spiral Tower is truly the most innovative and sustainable high-rise attraction in the world.
New landmark for city centre, city district, expo terrain, park. Amazing 360 degrees surround view. Magical motion spiraling up and down. Autonomous electric cabines with energy regeneration. Variable number of capsules during operation. Easy to upgrade (more capsules). Sustainable architecture lightweight construction/ circular.
