Many of the world's tallest skyscrapers will make you queasy if you reached their summit.
如果你到达世界许多摩天大楼的最高点,你一定会头晕目眩。
But these grand buildings could soon look like a bungalow in comparison to a three-mile high skyscraper envisioned by architects.
但是,与建筑学家们所构想的这座三英里高的摩天大楼一比,它们可就成了小平房了。
They say that the mighty tower could be built by 2062, using 3D printing technology to create walls that could withstand high winds and unique climates.
建筑学家们表示,这座高楼可能会在2062年落成,使用3D打印技术建造出墙壁,可以抵挡强风和极端气候。
The skyscraper is the vision of Arconic, a materials science company based in New York, as part of its larger campaign called The Jetsons – an homage to the 1962 cartoon, set in 2062.
这幢摩天大楼是位于纽约的材料科学公司--阿尔科尼西公司的设想,它是该公司大型活动“摩登家庭”的一部分,这一活动是为了向1962年出品的以2062年为背景的动画片《摩登家庭》致意。

Engineers from the firm are working with futurists to imagine how the world will look in 45 years.
阿尔科尼西公司的工程师与未来派艺术家一起工作,来设想45年之后的未来世界。
The team has envisioned the Arconic tower – a three-mile-high skyscraper created using materials that are either in-development or have already been brought to market.
阿尔科尼西公司设想出一幢三英里高的摩天大楼。大楼使用的材料全都是正在开发或已经问世的。
As well as being staggeringly tall, the tower will also have futuristic features, including smog-eating surfaces, and retractable balconies.
除了高到极致,该大楼还很具未来主义特色,包括能够净化雾霾的外表涂层和折叠阳台。
Arconic is currently working on a project called EcoClean, a special coating that allows building to self-clean and purify the surrounding air.
阿尔科尼西公司目前正在研究的一个叫EcoClean的项目,它是一种能帮助建筑物自我清洁并净化周围空气的特殊涂料。
Sherri McCleary, one of Arconic's chief materials scientists, told Business Insider: 'The functional coating provides aesthetics, it provides maintenance benefits, and it also provides a benefit to the surrounding environment by reducing the content of pollutants around it.'
阿尔科尼西公司的首席材料学家谢丽·麦卡利在接受《财经内幕》采访时表示:“这种功能性涂料不仅美观,维护保养起来也方便。由于能减少附近的污染物,对周围环境也有好处。”
