Cleaner Greener China

h/t Inhabitat for highlighting this amazing new building by Studio Shift.

to be built in Miyi County, the Miyi tower is actually being designed to do more than any of its peers.

It will filter water.

The tower will also serve as a bridge that will connect the northern part of the New South Town with the southern part. The northern section will represent a cultural core of the region while the southern will clear the contaminated river turning it into a new wetland ecosystem.

An excellent encasing for what would otherwise be a bunch of industrial looking water equipment.
