The Dynamic Tower is the world’s first rotating skyscraper, where each floor can independently turn to offer changing panoramic views. This groundbreaking project combines dynamic architecture, industrial prefabrication, and renewable energy technologies. Utilizing wind turbines and solar panels, the tower is entirely energy self-sufficient and even capable of producing surplus electricity for external use. Its modular construction method reduces costs, construction time, and on-site risks. As a symbol of future-oriented, sustainable, and adaptive design, the Dynamic Tower redefines the relationship between architecture, nature, and technology.

Scientists have successfully developed a transparent and biodegradable wood that can serve as a sustainable alternative to plastic and glass. Unlike previous methods, this material is produced without synthetic or plastic components and is based on cellulose nanowires, providing both high transparency and remarkable strength. Its applications include insulated windows, electronic displays, and solar cells. Additionally, this wood can reduce indoor temperatures by 5 to 6 degrees Celsius. This technology is expected to be widely adopted in sustainable architecture and modern design in the near future.

Engineers at the University of São Paulo and Princeton have developed a method for recycling cement waste into a low-carbon, sustainable alternative that matches the strength of conventional Portland cement. This process, which repurposes construction waste, creates a binder with minimal carbon emissions. The recycled cement is combined with small amounts of Portland cement or limestone to achieve the necessary strength and workability. This technology could reduce emissions from the cement industry by up to 61% while contributing to a circular economy and reducing construction waste.
