Interesting Idea ! Though the idea of a building having height above 1000 metre seems quite far fetched to me if a 828m high tower like the Burj Khalifa ,which
some years back was thought to be quite impossible, can be built there is a
possibility that buildings this tall can also be built. But the problem is Burj Khalifa has a base that covers a wide area(Its a 2,80,000 square meter skyscraper) ,
the base of this building on the other hand looks comparatively narrower and thus I doubt it will be able to support a building that tall. A taller building must also have a wider base. So the design of this building seems quite risky. Yes they have used aileron like fins to counter any problem arising from wind pressure but the problem is the base of the building doesn't seem strong enough to support the load caused by the height of the building.
By the way what technology have they used to build this building.I have heard
slip forming is a very quick and efficient way in building high rise buildings
but is there any new technology that has been introduced lately
