An award-winning subterranean skyscraper was recently completed at the University of Minnesota. Designed by David Bennett, the building plunges 110 feet beneath the campus, peeking above the surface a mere 20 feet.
You might think it would be dreary inside the building. But a large percentage of the usable space has access to natural light. A" telewindow "on the roof projects a view of the street via a series of lenses and mirrors. In addition,an array of reflective lenses mounted on a panel on the roof beams sunlight 60 feet down.
" Traditional cities have too much aboveground construction, " says David Bennett. " Green space is lost and the view is disturbed. Future cities will probably be more subterranean than they are today. "
Why build down instead up? Energy conservation is one. reason. Says Bennett, "Minnesota’s climate varies by a hundred and thirty degrees Fahrenheit, but twenty-five feet underground, the temperature remains at about fifty degrees all year round. " Subterranean construction also permits more visually pleasing land use — for instance, the preservation of an unobstructed view of historic landmark.
It is not boring inside Bennett’s new building because______.
