Towering imaginations.

Posted by apostropher

The city of Mississauga in Ontario is holding a contest to design a skyscraper to be built there. The entries are just amazing. Too bad they can only build one.

The finalists.
The runners-up.
The rest of the entries.

Biomorphism is teh new hottness.

Hey apo, have you ever checked out the Kunsthaus Graz? The building's "skin" is an architectural innovation: "BIX is a matrix of 930 fluorescent lamps integrated into the eastern Plexiglas facade of the Kunsthaus. Through the possibility to individually adjust the lampšs brightness at an infinite variability with 20 frames/second images, films and animations can be displayed."

I thought Kunsthaus was German for "brothel".
