skyscrapers and sailboats

If we could combine the two designs, we could have a travelling autonomous zone, another facet of the temporary autonomous zone (TAZ).




Here is an attempt at being a sailboat and a skyscraper, an eyesore and a 7 star hotel:

"The Burj Al Arab is the tallest building with a membrane structure, the tallest hotel in the world, and the only hotel to have been awarded seven stars. It contains an atrium that, at a height of 591 feet, is the highest in the world. This building was designed to break every record and for its construction to be an international event. It appears in modern iconography alongside the Eiffel Tower; the Statue of Liberty, the Sphinx, and London Bridge in a fantastic panorama of the new 'wonders of the world.' In other words, it is already recognized worldwide. None of its features pass unobserved, beginning with its sailboat shape. Purposely situated on an artificial island 920 feet from the coast and connected to it by a road it preserves the privacy of its guests...."
all the new wonders of the world.
