Week 1

I have done a search on unbuilt buildings of importance and have come across a few interesting building, all new and predicted to be built in the next couple of years.
Below are the following:

1. The Chicago Spire, which was designed by Spanish Architect Santiago Calatrava. This building is scheduled to be completed in 2011 with 150 floors. The Architects inspiration to the theme/design of this building was ‘nature’. I consider this building to be very interesting. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicago_Spire

2. Sola Residence – Los Angeles. Escher GuneWardena Architecture. I found this residential dwelling to be interesting as it is not your typical four walls and a roof design, this project is unbuilt and could be a possibility.

3. Caribbean Hill-top Residence – Architects Carl Abbott FAIA Architects. This too is a residential dwelling and as about it is very unique.
