CCTV HeadQuarters - Rem Koolhaas



















This Building is under construction in Beijing, and
marks the centerpiece of what hopes to be a 300
tower central business district in Beijing. Rather than go into details, I’ll distill why this design is so important:
It marks one of the first buildings that aim to defy gravity without overtly proclaiming it. In effect, it’s one of the first buildings that is a physical manifestation of a video game building (which can obviously be any shape it wants because it doesn’t have to follow laws of gravity).
