Cool Building in Dubai where each floor rotates independently of the other. Pretty Cool!

I had read about this building a couple months ago
and found the concept to be pretty fascinating and
now this morning I've just stumbled upon this video
via
Digg.com.
Check it out, each floor plate in the building
rotates and if I'm understand the underlying
technologies; they're capturing the energy for other
uses or to defray energy costs for the building
itself. I will try and locate more information and
double-back and add it to this post.

If you're looking well made furniture and selection
no matter what style you're looking for check out
Room & Board. The have stores also but I only
know them via their informative, well-produced
catalog, and website. One of the things I appreciate
about R&B is the editorial that's included it's
not just a catalog. This link for example takes you
to a
behind-the-scenes photo. shoot
with interviews of the owners of the property; it
brings the pages to life and puts the furnishings and
their design aesthetic into a different perspective
that I enjoy I hope you do to.
