t’s no secret that the world’s most popular cities are facing a bit of a predicament – room for growth. London, New York, Sydney, Singapore, Berlin, San Francisco – the whole world flocks to these hubs of innovation and havens of the live/work/play lifestyle. But there’s one small problem – we’ve run out of room.

from MIX paper responsible sources

With the option to sprawl outward from these city centres becoming a geographic impossibility, architects and designers are creating solutions, which move us up, rather than across. However, this vertical movement has meant the emergence of myriad tall and slender residential skyscrapers – limiting customization, personalisation and design flexibility.

Though we most certainly need to go up, the world’s greatest design thinkers are challenged to present alternatives – so that us city-dwellers can have our cake, and eat it too.

New York-based Oiio Architecture Studio looked around their city, and challenged themselves to think of an alternate version to designing up: “What if we substituted height with length?” says Ioannis Oikonomou, Architect and Oiio Founder, “What if our buildings were long instead of tall?”

This disruptive approach began on 57th Street New York City – A.K.A. Billionaire’s Row. After the emergence of One57, which was completed in 2014, everything changed for 57th Street. Ioannis tells me, that is, “aside from its exceptional location, the success of 57th Street corridor has mainly to do with floor area ratio (FAR), the formula that equates to maximum developable floor space allowed at a property. And FAR can be stretched really tall with a few tricks.”

The potential for optimising FAR in cities across Australia (and worldwide!), touches at the core of sustainable initiatives and the very human problems of population density. According to a report conducted by students from Columbia University in 2010, the streets in the surrounding area had different combinations of 8, 10, 12, and 15 FAR, but 57th Street was the only street with all 15 FAR and in stark contrast to 58th and 59th Streets that have mostly only 10 FAR.

Ioannis continues, “There is an undeniable obsession in Manhattan where architecture is only made to be seen. There are many different ways that can make a building stand out, but in order to do so, the building has to – quite literary – stand out.”

The practices of architecture and urban planning have definitely become familiar with building height measurements. But, for those of us not in the profession, we usually learn about the latest tallest building and remain impressed by its price per square foot. Perhaps it’s time that a property’s height cease operating as a license for it to be expensive, unattainable and, quite frankly, a poor solution to the problems our cities are currently burdened by.

In New York for example, “zoning laws have created a peculiar set of tricks through which developers try to maximize their property’s height in order to infuse it with the prestige of a high rise structure,” notes Ioannis. “But if we manage to bend our structure instead of bending the zoning rules of New York we would be able to create one of the most prestigious buildings in Manhattan. The longest building in the world! The Big Bend can become a modest architectural solution to the height 6

limitations of Manhattan. We can now provide our structures with the measurements that will make them stand out without worrying about the limits of the sky.”

But achieving the Big Bend isn’t as easy as it sounds. The challenges of creating a fully functioning curved building would be off-putting for any architect – but solutions do exist.

Ioannis explains for example that, “The Big Bend was considered to be one of the greatest challenges in elevator history, but is now finally becoming reality. “The elevator that can travel in curves, horizontally and in continuous loops.

The innovative track changing system allows for the horizontal connection of two shafts on the top and bottom to create a continuous loop.

It’s an incredibly exciting time for large-scale architecture right now.”

It’s an incredibly exciting time for the future of our cities, too.
