The Bionic Tower (Spanish: Torre Biónica; Chinese: 仿生塔) was an imagined vertical city, designed for human habitation by Spanish architects Eloy Celaya, María Rosa Cervera and Javier Gómez.[1][2] It would have a main tower Шаблон:Convert high, with 300 stories housing approximately 100,000 people. The purpose of the Bionic Tower was to utilize bionics to address the issue of the world's rising population in an eco-friendly manner. [3]

The Bionic Tower would be exactly 400 meters taller than the current tallest building, the Burj Khalifa.

The Bionic Tower is composed of two complexes. The first complex, Bionic Tower, is made up of twelve vertical neighborhoods, each eighty meters in height. The neighborhoods are separated by safety areas, designed to make for easier construction and evacuation in the case of emergency. Each neighborhood has two groups of buildings, one on the interior of the building and one on the exterior. Both groups of buildings are situated around large gardens and pools. The second complex, called the Base Island, is 1,000 meters in diameter, and is made up of many buildings, gardens, pools, and communication infrastructures. Foreseen uses of these complexes include hotels, offices, residential, commerce, cultural, sports and leisure.

In 1997, work on the prototype Bionic Vertical Space began. This was developed by the architects Eloy Celaya, María Rosa Cervera and Javier Gómez through the beginning of 2001. Eloy Celaya, who studied at Columbia University, is developing another project similar to the Bionic Tower.

While in office, then-Shanghai mayor Xu Kuangdi expressed an interest in the concept for his city. Hong Kong also reportedly expressed interest in the project.
