By utilizing parametric modeling to create a helical, twisting form, we maximize the surface area for air intake, effectively cleaning up to 600,000 cubic meters of air daily while maintaining a minimal footprint in public green spaces. ### Engineering Efficiency through Parametric Design The core of the VERTO system is not merely aesthetic but rooted in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). We analyze local wind patterns to determine the tower's geometry, ensuring the helical twist channels air flow with minimal resistance. This specific form increases the surface area for filtration without requiring massive structural footprints, making it ideal for integration into existing parks and urban nodes. ### Modular and Non-Intrusive Architecture We treat the tower as a modular Kit of Parts. This approach facilitates transport and on-site assembly while respecting local biodiversity. By carefully designing the perforations and structural cores, we ensure that the system operates quietly and avoids creating wind turbulence that could disturb local wildlife. The gradient of openings in the facade is a direct result of our algorithmic process, optimizing airflow for maximum purification efficiency. ### Sustainability and Circular Economy The environmental impact of our products is calculated from the outset. VERTO systems are designed with longevity and recyclability in mind. By removing fine dust particles like PM2.5 and PM10 from the ambient air, we create micro-climates of cleaner air where communities can gather. It is a fusion of technology and biology, proving that urban infrastructure can contribute positively to the environment rather than just occupying space. ## About Studio Symbiosis We are Amit and Britta, founders of Studio Symbiosis. We believe architecture should actively solve urban problems, which is why we developed the VERTO tower to blend cutting-edge engineering with the natural landscape.
