The buildings in Singapore are pretty amazing! There must be some sort of covenant that means not all the buildings are just boring boxes. Maybe they have something like Melbourne where 1% of the cost of a building has to be spent in making it creative or arty from the outside.
This building is the ArtScience Museum and it has 4 storeys inside. It is designed to use no power and it is cool inside from the design. Apparently they seldom use the lights either.
I actually don’t think this photo does it justice for how huge this building is and on the top is apparently an enormous infinity pool. Haven’t they seen that movie where Jason Statham kills the villain by sucking him out of the infinity pool and he plunges to his death? In his togs. Somethings are just not worth picturing in your head.
One very cool item was the water that gets collected off the roof when it rains and it goes down a concave shaped roof and into the hole and into the pool below. It was very cool!
If only we had that! Probably add to the price and in the end we pay. We have a bunch of philistines in NZ.
