We have entered the age of the “mega tall” skyscraper and the tallest skyscrapers of the future. The first mega-tall Tower — a building that soars over 2,000 feet into the air — opened ten years ago, according to Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH). It was the Burj Khalifa, and it set excellent records at 2,722 feet tall or over half a mile high. But come 2018, a new building will rise more than 550 feet taller than the Khalifa.

And the CTBUH predicts that buildings will keep getting taller. They will be finished by 2020, and four are more than 2,000 feet tall. There may even be a kilometer-ta l building (3,280 feet) by the end of the next decade. We rounded up a list of some of the tallest buildings currently under construction, according to CTBUH.

The skylines of the future will look a lot different.

When finished, it will become the tallest building in the world — but who knows for how long.

  • The term “living in a bubble” may be associated with being disconnected from the harsh realities of the world, but in this case, it’s actually a good thing!

The Living O’Pod is an experimental pod house that promotes a better lifestyle through the integration of nature into the home’s design. Designed for two people to comfortably stay in, the pod is shaped like a transparent bubble that sits amongst the wilderness, with a design so minimal, it puts its surroundings front and center.

The two-story pod comes with a steel frame as its main structure, and glass panels all around, almost like a glass igloo. While this undeniably does a number on resident privacy, its remote location itself gives you the solitude you need to live with absolute transparency. The obvious benefit? Incredible lighting, stellar views, and probably the best sunrises and sunsets you could enjoy within the comforts of your bed!
