Designed by CLS, headed by award winning Architect Darren Chan, the "Helios Rehab Sanctuary” innovates application of sustainable technologies.
Within an ethereal rehabilitating tower, shades of society gather
forming communities of hope. Occupants are treated with supported clean
peaceful living. The tower, vertically zoned, focuses on healing the
BODY (lower), MIND (mid-section) and SPIRIT (high).
Truly sustainable cities should focus on the economy of resources but
also the health of the people. Sufferers briefly "escape” pressured
living to rehabilitate within the tower and ultimately release back into
society.
The tensegrity-network-based outer-frame houses horizontal access to
pods via green ramps. The "hexa-skin” and pod shells incorporate air
pollution cleansing TX-Active integrated white panels which also reflect
light onto the Solyndra Solar rod arrays encasing the kinetic pods. The
Solyndra capture direct, diffused and reflected sunlight across
360-degree photovoltaic surfaces. Depending on climatic variation, it
opens promoting cooling and the rod-system induces ventilation and
views, it closes for protection, insulation and energy saving.
Once diminished, users rejuvenate and support a healthy society. The
shimmering tower acts as a beacon of hope to its parent city; a vertical
rehab sanctuary.”
