Dubai has been the superlative of the decade: the biggest boom town with the biggest projects. Burj Dubai is the ultimate— a super tall building that defines the spirit of the George J. Efstathious and William F. Baker of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill discuss the Burj Dubai at the Chicago Architecture Foundation, May 7, 2009culture, commerce, and people of Dubai. This project represents not only state-of-the-art tall building design, but also the successful collaboration between architecture and engineering with its pioneering "buttressed core" system and sophisticated aerodynamics. Once completed, it will be the tallest man-made structure ever created.
Efstathiou and Baker will address the unprecedented growth of Dubai over the past decade and explain how the global economic downturn has affected this booming city. They will highlight the innovative systems and technologies that made the Burj Dubai possible and discuss the project’s current construction status as it nears completion during an economically uncertain time.
