Many of the world's tallest skyscrapers² will make you queasy³ 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 bungalow⁴ in comparison to a three-mile high skyscraper¹ 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 mighty⁵ 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 homage⁶ 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 retractable⁷ 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 functional⁸ coating provides aesthetics⁹, it provides maintenance benefits, and it also provides a benefit to the surrounding environment by reducing the content of pollutants¹⁰ 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。”
