Vanity Height: the Use-less Space in Today’s Tallest Buildings
It is noticed at Jeddah Kingdom tower, that a fair amount of the top of the building seemed to be an unoccupied spire. This prompted us to investigate the increasing trend towards extreme spires and other extensions of tall buildings that do not enclose usable space, and create a new term to describe this – Vanity Height, i.e., the distance between a skyscraper’s highest occupiable floor and its architectural top, as determined by Height Criteria.
