Nice on paper but why does she build some weird monument to show the system and not implement it in a house lets say.

I bow before the smart people who do not try to outsmart nature and use what it invented, for us all to benefit. :)

Very cool and good idea but what about rain? Or hurricanes? Its a smart desighn but it gets harder and harder to build and improve today cause we have very good buildings that has been develope in a huge amount of time. But i hope this can come to good use ;)

The idea looks good on paper. But over time buildings age: metals start to corrode, wind carries dust and plant seeds etc which will start to settle on the metallic vanes and interfere with the architect's pristine vision. I'd like to see the buildings in 50, or 100 years and see how well they withstand the test of time.
