I Do Like Unusual Shaped Buildings,

and this artist impression caught my eye,


a building with a real twist,

but here is the thing, it is actually being built!

 Belgian architect Vincent Callebaut, designed this high-rise tower in Taipei, named ‘Tao Zhu Yin Yuan’ is about halfway complete, scheduled for completion in September 2017,

 as an aside the residential tower will support 23,000 trees absorbing up to 130 tonnes of carbon dioxide each year, from the north or south, it looks like a pyramid, while east and west views give onlookers a fuller idea of the building’s scale, it will contain 40 luxury apartments and additional facilities, what an interesting and unusual design, I will try to look out for it when it is completed.
