Project Triangle: A Sustainable Super Design in Paris, Porte de Versailles

This modern building design is a marvel. It casts no shadow, and generates its own electricity. Is there anything that this ultra-modern design doesn’t do? Well, you can add “amaze” to that list, because it does that too. Dubbed “Project Triangle” for obvious reasons, this remarkable piece of architecture will rise at Porte de Versailles in Paris, France, and is due for completion in 2014. Architects Herzog & de Meuron utilized a shape that’s much more than just pleasing to the eye. The building’s triangular profile is designed to maximize solar and wind power generation, taking this off-the-chain design off the grid too. The ground floor will house a retail and commercial component, while open upper levels will feature public spaces boasting panoramic views of Paris, giving the Eiffel Tower a run for its money.
