ASPIRE

ASPIRE is a monumental tower rising 100ft into the air, glistening in the sunlight. The structure is made of steel square tube, twisted and interwoven in a mesmerizing graceful hollow spire. At the bottom, the tower splays out into a 56ft diameter pavilion with integrated bench seating. Carbon fiber covers the lower spaces of the tower to provide a shady respite during the day to gather and connect. At night, ASPIRE becomes an interactive lighting wonderland. Hundreds of illuminated glass orbs in the center of the spire enact complex color patterns in response to participant input through a centrally located touchscreen interface. ASPIRE will amaze and entertain Google campus employees and tourists alike, creating a vibrant dynamic community space for human connections and technological advances.
