Abstract:

The purpose of the paper is to discuss the idea of the construction of the World’s Tower – a vertical town that, at the same time, symbolizes human brotherhood. The idea is to build the facility consisting of four towers joined from above with an arch structure that has the same cross section as the towers. The building, thanks to the top arches, constitutes the symbol of the unity of south and north, east and west. Moreover, at the height of 900m there is a batten plate (thanks to which the building is 1200 m high) and the fifth component – the spherical structure with a diameter of 220 m. The outlines of the continents are placed on the elevation of the spherical structure. The whole building symbolizes the mankind that has taken under its wings the planet earth.
