Preliminary developments on the Tower
The curved and textured glass surfaces will refract sunlight in a manner similar to light shining through glass block [photo below.]
The surface of the base will be covered in photovoltaic cells that will reflect sunlight light up to the tower for additional energy collection. The PVs molded to the curved surface, when viewed from above will also create a "glimmer" effect similar to that of sunlight reflecting off of water.
I.E.
To create this effect when viewed from above
