Dubai – where else?! (TGW) – Timelinks, a Dubai-based environmental design firm, has revealed concept renderings of a giant eco pyramid, named Ziggurat, with the official unveiling set for the Cityscape Dubai event October 6-9 this year.
Ziggurat will be 4000 feet high and would be capable of housing one million people – even better, it will only take up 2.3 square kilometers and will be carbon neutral.
The pyramid will utilize natural energy resources including wind power and steam power to achieve this.
The building will also have an extremely efficient public transportation system that goes both horizontally and vertically.
Timelinks has patented the designs for the structure.
