Wow, that company has been in charge of some really BIG projects, they ain't playing around.

Check out Beijing's airport which is in construction. It's insane.

LOL -- thanks for that Artist, great post! -- Norman Foster is Britain's greatest living architect.

Remember, they did the McLaren factory.

More Brutalist architecture.

This would have to be one of the genuine masterpieces of 20th Century Modern architecture.

The Salk Institute is truly exemplary architecture -- it embodies everything the Modernists strived for, it is utopian architecture -- up-lifting -- spiritual even.

The Salk Institute, 1959-1965, La Jolla, California, designed by Louis Kahn














Here is another beautiful building by Louis Kahn, Ther Kimbell art Museum, Texas, 1966-1972.
