The facade.



With the need for complex shading/insulation systems, the glass tower is free from clutter that is raw and clean.  With only mullions blocking the open spaces within.

Internally lit, it is a beacon in a city of mostly low-rise, the start of a new future for Brisbane perhaps?  This is what 42 Elizabeth street could be; or at least if energy was free.  Well, at least for now, this is what I think it could be.

I think the internal working of the building would be less open planned tho, but using a grid system that divided the space up into units that can be spanned, or separated into anything.  Not just a primarily residential space, it will have commercial, office, retail and manufacturing spread throughout the building with potentially other facilities such as schools and such as well in the tower.
