European Millennium Tower Competition, Glasgow:
Richard Horden Architects were awarded first prize for their Wing
Tower but
controversially the project was essentially taken over by BDP Architects,
Glasgow.
The Glasgow Tower brief required a 100 metre high tower. The Tower
was to include a viewing platform, restaurant and exhibition space.
Richard Horden worked with aeronautical engineer Peter Heppel, to
design a vertical wing that rotated with the wind direction. Being
visible for miles around, it allows Glaswegians to tell which way
the wind is blowing! The Glasgow Tower was the first of its kind to
rotate to reduce the aerodynamic forces on the structure.

Richard Horden - Background on the Architect
Richard Horden is an English architect and yachtsman. Horden became well-known
in the Eighties for light simple buildings that used yacht technology and
yacht iconology. His modern rectilinear buildings were part of the Hi-Tech
style that swept England, key architects being Richard Rogers, Norman Foster
and Chris Wilkinson.
Richard Horden Architects tried to transfer the elegance of sailing and
the beauty and technology of the modern aircraft into architecture, in a
way reminiscent of architect Le Corbusier's extolling of the modern technology
of cars and planes. However, unlike Le Corbusier, Richard Horden aimed for
light prefabricated buildings.
