The Gherkin Building

Commissioned by: 31.  firm called Foster and Partners.

The features of its appearence:

• Its shape is like a 32.  .

• It can reduce the carbon 33.  of the city.

• It lets 34.  pass through the building, both reducing heating costsand brightening up the workspace.

• One false story claimes that the exterior of the building is partly made of 35.  .

Architectural concept:

• links 36.  with the workplace.
• relies less on 37.  for temperature control than other similar buildings. 

The features of its interior:

• The atria that let fresh air pass through the interior are know as 38.  .

• There is a place for entertainment called the 39.  at the top of the building.

The future of urban planning and architecture:

• It is likely that the entire 40.  will be disigned with more similarly eco-friendly buildings in future.
• A new building will be constructed aiming to produce zero waste and remove carbon dioxide from us as much as possible.
