The overall concept of this project is to challenge the boundary of the traditional data center. Through the way of using the loop design strategy to invite community into the building and providing space for nearby residents to exercise and relax, at the same time meeting all the needs of a zero carbon data center. Within this project, the generator and chiller providing electricity and cooling service to the data hall space. And the heat that gernerated from the datahall could been reused by the recreation center for preheating the swimming poor and the the service of hot yoga, hot spa, shower and gym. And another part of heat will transfer upward to the commercial greenhouse. The commercial green house could reuse this heat and co2 to make the plants grow faster. Moreover, at the top , the clean electricity can be gerated both from the runnning track and the transparent pv panel roof which could be send to the datacenter for daily use.
