One Cool bit of Architecture!!!


Stumbled across this the other day...It's located in Sweden and is called the Turning Torso. The Turning Torso stands 54 floors high and has 90 degrees of twist...the same Architect is reportedly working on a similar design to be located in Chicago which will stand 115 floors and have 270 degrees of twist. more details here!

You refer to Santiago Calatrava, the hottest architect going these days. That Chicago building is called the Fordham Spire. Checks out the pics of it, and some even cooler "stackable" condos in NY on 80 South Street, here: http://www.calatrava.com/main.htm
