An interesting building with a very green roof

[Paul B]

That one looks like it might work in comparison with the majority of overly steep green roofs...

I like these styrofoam houses

[Bubba]

That's a great idea

Good article about differing architectural views on Dubai here. It's over a year old but still interesting I think.

Got me thinking about that enormous tower and wondering how construction is going..........

I'd be interested to know about the testing done on the twisty building. Looks like it could turn into a massive sail. could be a bit like the wobbly bridge by the Tate Modern.

Looks like its tied to a lamppost. Maybe 20 unused dogcollars tied together.

[Bubba]

Quite like this house

[Houdini]

WOW.  That house and location is absolutely incredible, I'm gobsmacked.  It's well techno.  I'm not sure I could imagine a finer residence.  WOW.

Is it nerdy of me to want a similar house, but for the gaps between the wood to be dipping at the same angle as the bedrock?
