    For most of these firms you can download their response to the question "If I could design London, I would..."

    Five Franklin Place, the first major American building by acclaimed Dutch architect Ben van Berkel of UNStudio, is a celebration of the art of building, the translation of a daring international vision into a perfect local expression, and proof that the practical and the sublime, the historic and the new, can exist in ideal balance — all in a simply extraordinary place to live.

    I saw this, I don't love it at all. Very "Dubai" isn't it?





    Among many exciting developments in Dubai, a new project emerges – The Museum of Middle Eastern Modern Art. Commissioned by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Prime Minister of UAE, UN Studios will design and construct the futuristic structure.
    Located in Culture Village, Dubai hopes the museum will be a hub for multicultural understanding. It will also serve as a global platform for local artists. We were unable to find any information about when the structure will be completed, but we’re looking forward to middle eastern art having another platform among the modern art scene.

    i know they produce almost everything we use/wear/own in the world, but they do it under supervision of investors from other countries.
    and i know, in reality, they are a very smart and old civilization, they've build a lot of shit in ancient times - i've seen it on tv :D
    but i wouldn't trust their own inventions, built by their hands in our modern time - i wouldn't trust them for a second :) i know what communism does to quality of work and finished product - they SUCK.

    This has possibly the ugliest exterior i've seen in a long while... inside is quite nice though...probably designed by an interior designer ;)
