Zaha Hadid’s One Thousand Museum Featured In Upcoming Documentary “Impossible Builds”
A documentary is in the works for PBS and Discovery called “Impossible Builds,” and Zaha Hadid’s One Thousand Museum is being featured, according to an announcement from the developer. There will be only five projects in the world to be featured with the recurring theme of delving into the making of complex structures throughout the world.
One of the most unique features of the 62 story condominium tower is the 5,000 piece exoskeleton that is sourced from glass fiber reinforced concrete. The exoskeleton arrives in shipments from Dubai and installed onsite.
“It is an honor for the project to be spotlighted in this important documentary film,” said Louis Birdman, one of the co-developers for One Thousand Museum by Zaha Hadid Architects. “We could not think of a better way to immortalize the forward-thinking project to a global audience across continents through this important documentary.”
Other projects to be featured will include the thinnest skyscraper in New York City and a resort villa in Dubai. The documentary is set for completion in 2018 and will be broadcast to approximately two billion viewers worldwide, according to the production company.
The tower is currently just past the halfway point of vertical construction. When completed, it will reach 709 feet and is the only residential skyscraper in the Western Hemisphere that was designed by Zaha Hadid. Here are some of the latest construction photos.
This is a Skyscraper Robot Mashup of Miami’s Most Iconic Art Deco Architecture
Miami Robot. By artist Joel Kuntz
Contemporary artist Joel Kuntz’s work often explores ideas about urbanism, architectural style, and iconography. He addressed all of those themes in his Globobot Series, of large graphic prints and 3D figures, created by mashing together simple line drawings and cutouts of the most recognizable buildings from major cities around the world, transformers style.The results are person-shaped miniature towers, or robots, that somehow still look remarkably like the cities they’re based on.
New York’s Robot is a futuristic gotham topped by One World Trade Center’s spire. Paris is a gnarly gargoyle combining Notre Dame, the Louvre, the Paris Pantheon, etc. with an ancient hump (The hump looks like the pantheon, a temple-like Dome commission by Napoleon as his tomb), all wrapped in a daringly translucent little cocktail dress. Of course this ‘outfit’ is really just the more modern great glass pyramid of the Louvre.
And then there’s Miami. Here it is in neon rainbows. The Miami robot is mostly but not entirely a big pile of art deco stuff scattered around South Beach. Kuntz has squeezed in one or two post-modern and contemporary works too. See you if you can recognize which ones. Check out the rest of Kuntz’s robot-city-mashups over at his website, here.
