Tao Zhu Yin Yuan, Taipei, Taiwan – The Tao Zhu Yin Yuan, designed by Vincent Callebaut Architectures, is expected to be completed in September 2017. Scroll through the gallery to see the Tao Zhu Yin Yuan's design as well as other spiraled skyscrapers from around the world.

Tao Zhu Yin Yuan, Taipei, Taiwan – The eco-friendly tower will have 23,000 trees, which allows it to absorb 130 tons of carbon dioxide annually, claims the architect.

Tao Zhu Yin Yuan, Taipei, Taiwan – Applying ancient Taiji philosophy about the natural world, its structure is in double helix form of DNA, which is a symbol of life and dynamism. "A modern healthy feng shui (concept) was created by employing natural elements to generate a breathing building and to ensure the mental and physical health of residents," says Callebaut.

The main challenge for the architect was to create two big units per floor, while being green, sustainable and earthquake-resistant in design. "Sunlight, thermal and wind analysis have enabled us to improve the bioclimatic design of the project," Callebaut says.

The building's double helix design is modeled after a strand of DNA, and the area covered by plants totals to 65,230 square feet (6,060 square meters). "The double-helix building structure generates a maximum of cascades of suspended open-air gardens."
