The Design-History
The design of Burj Khalifa is derived from patterning systems embodied
in Islamic architecture The Y-shaped plan is ideal for residential and hotel usage, with the
wings allowing maximum outward views and inward natural light
The design architect, Adrian Smith, has said the triple-lobed footprint
(base) of the building was inspired by the flowerHymenocallis!!
During the design process, engineers rotated the building 120 degreesfrom its original layout to reduce stress from strong winds since it is very
tall!
