The Cloud: A Beautiful Mesh Tower

The next Olympic Games, which will be held in the year 2012 at the Olympic Park in the city of London, will definitely leave its crowd spellbound with some of its jaw dropping structures built at the Olympic arena. “The Cloud” is one of the structures that will mesmerize the tourists. It is a 400 feet tall mesh tower, which has already been shortlisted as one of the entries for a competition to attract the tourists.

The Cloud is special in its own ways and has some of the most amazing designs that one could have never imagined. For instance, the beautiful tower is covered with solar powered plastic bubbles. These bubbles have a major role to function as they are responsible for showing images and data. They will forecast weather information, the Olympic race results, and also read the number of spectators present.

The Cloud can also be converted into an observation deck and a park. Indeed, it is very interesting that The Cloud has ramps, stairs, and lifts that will carry the tourists to the top of the tower where they can have a scenic view of the beautiful city below. The Cloud can generate its own energy with the use of the solar cells on the ground and in the plastic spheres. I will definitely not miss The Cloud even if I miss the London Olympics.
