56 Leonard Street by Herzog & de Meuron: the video


56 Leonard Street from david basulto on Vimeo.
A few months ago we featured an amazing skyscraper by Herzog & de Meuron, that will have a great impact in the skyline of New York. I’m very intrigued by the final result of this project, as it develops a pixelated unit composition that many have propossed, but no one has built.

Now, a friend sent me this amazing video to market the building, done by Tronic Studios. The video reveals some portions of the structure of this building, such as beams that distribute the vertical charges of this particular typology.
