The City of Taichung recently sought proposals for an iconic new tower to serve as a landmark and a symbol of Taiwan´s spirit. One of the proposals in the design competition was the ‘Taiwan Tower’ designed by Portugal-based OODA Architecture in collaboration with the Spanish and American studio OOIIO. The stunning star-shaped tower received a Merit Award in the competition based on its unique architecture and green building strategies that include a vertical-axis wind turbine in the very tip of the tower.
