World's First Rotating Tower

There will be 80 floors in this futuristic rotating tower with each floor having the capability to move independently or in unison with the other floors. Pretty wild huh? The tower will be built over the next two years in Dubai. The concept is designed by Italian architect David Fisher. I must add Fisher has never built a skyscraper. A quote from World Architecture News:

"Rotating Tower is the Italian architect’s first skyscraper design but he is confident that he will be able to pull off the concept, first listing his experience in the architecture world and then by stating: “I did not design skyscrapers but I feel completely ready to do so.”

Ok, can we just be honest? His FIRST skyscraper? Seriously??? Seriously.
