LaGuardia Air Control Tower

The Air Control tower project focused on designing a tower that would be located in LaGuardia Airport. The main objective was to create a distressful environment for the employees by integrating sustainable, technical, structural and lighting elements. My group worked on the design together and we came up with a tower that would rotate 5° as it goes up until it reaches the main cabin. While it rotates the facade starts to are out creating water harvesting channels. The water would be used to maintain an indoor garden and other facilities. My main focus was on the overall design, structure elements, and modeling the design both physically and digitally.
