First of all, I want to wish good luck to all the competitors. I am sure this will be a very exciting journey so lets have some fun. Here is my first rendering of the tower and the terrain.

Is that a hint your Final will be set at sunset?

Here is my first sketch. I am planning to keep the structure as simple and clean as possible. The design is being inspired after the work of Arq. Santiago Calatrava.

hmmmmm,, its cool but i think your sketch is very close to amers concept, no?! I mean its even extruded from the same angle and his is a moving structure, reminded me of calatravas work, is yours doing that too?!

Amer's is a phallic symbol, Ernesto's is the opposite is he's using the Calatrava structure I think he is

Anyway, it's not unusual for two people to come up with things that look similar to somebody.

I've always been inspired by calatrava ever since i stumbled upon his work in school many years ago.. in the beginning i thought the sketch was 'too close for comfort' but my concept is naturally evolving towards it's original intent with calatrava only being an inspiration =)

it's nice to know how many creative minds are inspired by this great architect, i only hope that these entries might find their way to his eyes for him to realize how much of an impact his work has had on many different and diverse communities and cultures!

I'm looking forward to your WIP Ernesto, best of luck! =)

Here is another sketch. I am planning to start modeling the structure tonight. I am sorry I haven't be able to reply to some of your comments; I promise I will tonight. Things have been hectic around the office these last couple of weeks.
