Wrap

Pinot — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 11:50:28 +0100

The Reichstag was wrappen in plastic in 1995 by famous artist Christo. The event was considered quite spectecular, but I still can't make any sense of it ...

The Pencil

Also known as "The Pencil". Guess why! :-)

Renovation

Pinot — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 11:03:49 +0100

The most visible renovation process was the renewal of the entrance and the court in front of it.

culture of Mainz

This theatre is a center of culture in Mainz and a beautiful center too.

A Boat?

Pinot — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 11:00:02 +0100

Is this building supposed to look like a boat. It it is, it is very abstract, but the steel cables, the filigree design and the swung roof suggest it. And it is close to the water ...

Combination

Pinot — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 10:56:58 +0100

A successful combination of the historic fassade and the modern interior. Different from Apple's store on 5th Ave. which is completely made of glass and modern.

really artistic..

Dragonstar — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 10:46:35 +0100

This is less a design but more an artistic building. Beautiful.

Diffuse

Pinot — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 10:42:13 +0100

The more or less diffuse design reminds me of the Scottish Parliament building: http://www.ourbania.de/urban-items/scottish-parliament-buildings

Rusty

Pinot — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 10:38:17 +0100

It looks a bit rusty, doesn't it?

Round and Angled

Pinot — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 10:31:41 +0100

I like the combination of round and angled elements. That makes the whole buiding more interesting.

nice design

Dragonstar — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 10:26:56 +0100

Well designed building, i like it..

Similarity

Pinot — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 10:26:32 +0100

It looks a bit like an earlier stage of this bulding: http://www.ourbania.de/urban-items/tod039s-omotesando-building

Similarity

Pinot — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 10:25:03 +0100

This building looks very similar to the Ginza building. Only the glass parts are a bit bigger and structured differently. And it is also a building owned by a brand. See: http://www.ourbania.de/urban-items/mikimoto-ginza-2-building

Symphony?!

Pinot — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 10:20:37 +0100

And why is it called "Symphony Tower"? Any information...?

Maybe ...

Pinot — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 10:17:50 +0100

... he would. I'm convinced it's in its best condition ever.
