We Often Watch Television Shows,

that feature a real life occupation, 

 Deadliest Catch, Ice Road Truckers are a couple that spring to mind, but one that we really enjoy is Outback Opal Hunters, and it is opal that this building looks like, all images © OMA, in the developing city of Gwanggyo located about 25 kilometers south of Seoul,

 this building which is a high end Korean department store has an exterior made to look like the precious mineral running through it, just like the seams appear when it is being mined.

 designed by OMA/Chris van Duijn, the Galleria shopping center features a mosaic facade of neutral-toned stones cut into exact triangles,

 OMA said in a release that the building is inspired in part by the nearby Suwon Gwanggyo Lake Park,

 an urban green space that surrounds a small body of water, complete with a rooftop garden, the structure has designated space for consumers to shop and for cultural activities that are open to the public,

and in the veins of opal? a series of geometric, opal windows, giving a view of the park and city, I have to say having watched many of the series, the building really does look like an opal in the rough.
