THE HOOD
RAYMOND HOOD (March 29, 1881 – August 14, 1934) designed skyscrapers such as the Radiator Building, the Daily News, the McGraw-Hill and the Rockefeller (RCA building) in New York. His skyscrapers are both modern and classic. His design theory was aligned with that of the Bauhaus, in that he valued utility as beauty and beauty as utility. He designed skyscrapers that liked to be tall, to scrape the sky, contrary to the mere high-rise nowadays.

A TRIBUTE
THE HOOD TRIBUTE, located opposite the Flatiron in New York, is a tribute to the skyscrapers of Raymond Hood. With the basement (the way it is plugged into the city), the midsection (the reproduction of the floorpan) and the top (the ending) and the setbacks needed for all of this.

FIBONACCI
THE HOOD TRIBUTE rises from the city in a sea of glass, looking to the parking area. It creates its own square like a CITY IN A CITY should. In the basement (0+1+3+1=5 floors) retail and offices are planned. In the midsection (21 floors) living is planned connected with basement through a garden roof. The top (3+2+2+1=8 floors) is formed by setbacks contains living and technique. The 5-21-8=34 floor division is based on the FIBONACCI numbers (0 1 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34 55 89…) with which the GOLDEN RATIO (approximately 1,618 (≈34/21≈55/34..)) can be calculated.
