Year 2037. The hub.
Wodden skyscraper connection node located in the south centre of Brno.
Connections and transfers: highspeed trains from Germany, Austria and Slovakia intersecting with Elon Musk´s hyperloop Bringing Prague and Wien. Possible transfers to inter-city train route linking Brno´s three stations: Brno Dolní nádraží, Brno Heršpice and Brno Main Train Station.
This structure offers an alternative view on what impact recently discovered lithium sources might have on our economy after Musk´s factories expanded on our territory, accelerating technologies and energy flow. Connection of wood and the newest technologies.
Grow and connect.

THE INTERNAL ORGANIC STRUCTURE
is generated by the script according to the requirements of the individual units for space. You can assign the required volume to each cell, and the script can find their best arrangement. Hyperloop, a boom in new technology that can revolutionize communication, but is still at the beginning of its development and will need more space and time to improve. The research center for this issue is placed in center.
FACADE
The outer facade connects and terminates the individual floors and connects the vertical structure with the horizontal.

MATERIAL
The main building material is wood - cut and growing, one of the most sustainable building materials.
One m3 of wood binds up to 250 kg of CO2
Renewable raw material
Good insulation properties
Ease
Durability
Easy disposal and recycling
STRUCTURE
The internal structure is defined as the minimum surface. This is a geometry that has an overall average curvature of zero. Thus, despite its complexity, it is statically advantageous.
