Continuing what we have talked about the top unique structure mentioned by Syed Mobin Architects, now lets see the third structure, CCTV Headquarters, China. At a modest 234 meters, the CCTV building isn’t going to stand out from a distance. However the design and shape is a crowd stopper to say the least and will be another incredible addition to Beijing’s skyline in time for the 2008 Olympics. The shape, described as a ‘z criss-cross’ results in a very high, seemingly unsupported corner at the front. Let’s hope there’s a glass floor up there.
