This concept is from the latest winner of the annual Skyscraper competition held by architecture magazine Evolo. The concept was designed by Derek Pirozzi, and is called the Polar Umbrella.

It shows off a future that would not only help the environment but also create a fascinating attraction. It would serve as an immediate solution to restore the polar ice shelf by using internal chambers to freeze ocean water.

The building would feature a helipad, an observation catwalk for tourists, research facilities, adjustable solar energy panels, weather balloons and an underwater eco-habitat for local widlife. Check it out below:
