Definitions
- This invention relates to building structures; more particularly it relates to an enclosed building, the perimeter of which would normally be in glass and the interior of which contains built useable spaces as well as a number of atria.
- the horizontal section of the building comprises a central core with useable or habitable areas extending radially outwards from the central core in the manner of spokes of a wheel.
- the number of spokes may vary according to the particular use of the building and the details of the design.
- the overall concept of the building is that of a multi-story glassed-in tower which may be cylindrical in form.
- the horizontal section may be oval or oblong, for example, rather than circular.
- the exterior walls joining the outer ends of successive spokes may be planar rather than arcuate causing the horizontal section to be polygonal. Other modifications are possible in which some exterior walls are arcuate and other planar.
- the atria are formed by the spaces between the facades of the useable spaces within the spokes and the perimeter walls joining the outer ends of successive spokes.
- an enclosed building having useable or habitable space, such as offices, hotel rooms or condominiums enclosed within the radially extending spokes with a maximum visible exposure both to the environmentally controlled atria and also to the outdoors through the exterior glass walls of the atria.
- the full expanse of one of the atria should be visible from each of the rooms or enclosed areas in the spokes through the glassed-in walls of the facades. There should also be a relatively wide-angled view of the outdoors from within any given habitable room through the glass perimeter wall of the associated atrium. It is a general objective of the invention that the habitable area will have such views of the atria and outdoors.
- the ratio of the length of the peripheral wall of an atrium to the total length of the facades adjoining is obviously closely related to the angle between the two facades of a particular atrium and to the number of spokes.
- each dwelling unit facing on the atrium should be kept to a minimum for the sake of privacy.
- the portion of each dwelling unit facing on the atrium should be oblique to the corresponding portion of all the other units.
- the number of spokes be small, preferably three.
- the synergistic effect of applying the spoked wheel- atrium concept to the three aforesaid elements is to produce the maximum possible simultaneous exposure of the facades of the habitable space to space within the atria and to the outdoors. This very advantageous effect is produced whether the exterior envelope of the building takes a cylindrical, an oblong or a polygonal form.
- Multi-level habitable buildings of polygonal or cylindrical form with radially extending divisions which may extend from a central core are also known. Examples of such buildings are found in U. S. P. 4,136,492 issued January 30, 1979 to John H. Willingham and U.S. Design Patent 208,090 issued July 18, 1967 to George D. Tesch. Such buildings, however, fail entirely to accomplish the purpose of the instant invention since they neither have atria which are visible from the majority of habitable units nor do they possess a view of the outdoors from the various portions of the habitable area as does the structure of the instant invention.
- a unique building structure with habitable space which in horizontal section comprises a central core and a plurality of spokes extending radially outwardly from said central core, characterized in that at least some successive ones of said spokes are connected by associated peripheral walls to form a plurality of enclosed atria each disposed between an associated pair of spokes, and said atria being circumferentially disposed around said central core.
- Fig. 1 contains 6 spokes or wings 1 extending radially from a central area and having located between each successive pair of spokes an atrium 2 enclosed by a glassed-in wall 3.
- the spokes as shown in Fig. 1 are all of the same length and the exterior walls of the atria comprise circular arcs providing an overall cylindrical outline.
- the central area in accordance with Fig. 1 contains an additional atrium. However, it will be understood that this is not an essential feature of the invention. As will be explained in the following, the central area may be utilized for various other purposes.
- atria including the central one, which are shown in Fig. 1 as being open at the top are in actual practice covered by a rood which may advantageously take the form of a skylight.
- Each atrium has a horizontal section in the form of a sector of a circle bounded on the sides by facades 5 of the associated spokes.
- the walls of the facades normally are of glassed-in construction to provide an optimum view from the habitable area within the spokes of the adjoining atrium and also of the outdoors through the transparent peripheral wall of the atrium.
- Fig. 2 shows a horizontal section of an embodiment of the invention which is very similar to that of Fig. 1 except that it contains five spokes rather than six.
- Each of the walls 3 and 5 bordering an atrium are of glass.
- passageway 21 which provides access in turn to each of the areas within the spokes.
- the area enclosed by passageway 21 consists mainly of a pentagonal atrium 22 covered by a skylight 23. Also, located within the atrium 22 are elevator shafts 24 with access from passageway 21.
- Each of the spokes contains a central longitudinal passageway 25 extending from passageway 21 to the outer end of the spoke where a stairway 26 is located.
- passageway 21 On either side of passageway 21 are rooms 27, each having one end wall forming a portion of a facade.
- Fig. 3 shows a horizontal section of an embodiment which differs from that of Fig. 2 only in that the peripheral walls 30 of the atria are planar giving the horizontal section of the building a generally polygonal shape.
- Fig. 4 is an example of a variant of the building structure of the invention in which the spokes are of different lengths causing the horizontal section as illustrated to have an oblong shape.
- the peripheral wall 40 of one atrium is arcuate whereas the other peripheral walls of the other atria are planar.
- Figs. 5 and 6 is an open concept containing three spokes which provides a broad view of one of the atria as well as of the outdoors from each of the habitable units.
- This embodiment is particularly adapted for living accommodation such as apartments or condominiums but may also be used for offices or hotels.
- Fig. 5 Surrounding the central area as shown in Fig. 5 are three radially-extending spokes 50 which surround the central area.
- the spokes contain a plurality of separate habitable units 51, 52, 53, 54, and 55 arranged in such a way that each of the five of the habitable units face onto one of the three atria.
- the sides of each two circumferentially successive spokes which extend generally in a radial direction join a unit 53.
- these sides form a series of facades stretching around the inner side of each atrium in the shape of a shallow U in horizontal section. Where the facade of each unit is planar the shallow U then takes the form of a segment of the circumference of a polygon.
- Fig. 5 besides providing a broad view of the adjoining atrium and of the outdoors is particularly advantageous in enhancing privacy among the units which look out on a given atrium. This is so because of the very small difference in angular direction between the facades of successive units facing the atrium. Thus only a very oblique view of the facade of any unit is seen from other units of the group facing on the same atrium.
- F ig. 6 shows a portion of the five habitable units fronting on an atrium.
- the facades are seen to include balconies 57 from which the view of the atrium and the outdoors may be more fully enjoyed.
- Sliding glass doors 56 provide access to each balcony.
- a screening partial wall 58 which may include plants or flowers on the side of the balcony facing the atrium together with opaque partitions at the ends of the balcony further enhance privacy.
- an atrium in the central area such an atrium is not an essential feature of the invention. In most cases it will be desirable to utilize the central area for services such as elevators and/or for heating and air-conditioning equipment.
