Beijing Architecture - Yahoo! News Photos

This has to be one of the most inventive, yet strangest office towers yet.

I like it because its not like every onther building in the US. The Olympic stadium looks amazing as well if you have not seen it yet. It looks like a birds nest.

Being an incoming architecture student, you'd think I'd like this crap. But honestly, what's the point? I understand wanting a builing to look unique, but WTF?

I love the Olympic Stadium. I honestly think its one of the best designs i have ever seen for an Olympic Stadium or any stadium for that matter. Thats just my opinion though.

The stadium looks like a nice stadium, that got wrapped in packing tape or something.

The model in white looks different from what it truly looks like:

The architecture just blows my mind and that must have been a challenge to build but i would love to see some unique building like that in Charlotte.

Some of the other buildings built for the Olympics are simply amazing as well. I love what they did with the Aquatic Center.

The aquatic center looks pretty cool. And to clarify my first post, I was talking about the office building in the link; the stadium's not too bad.

You guys should check out skyscraper page. You can list them by city, and check out all of the cool new buildings in Dubai, Beijing, Shanghai, and Chicago.

Well, China has their stuff together. At least the Aquatic Center has a roof. Ahem...Athens 2004 Olympics?

Alternately, you should check out Emporis. I like it more than SkyscraperPage. It's better organized, and Emporis is a real estate data company, so it's got more data and photos.

As for this building, it looks awesome. Buildings nowadays are looking a lot more futuristic. Look at the Burj Dubai, for example.
