Thats pretty cool looking in a picture but probably pretty bland if you were there in person. Its too simple imo.

Well, you can always do rain renderings.

^ very wonderful forms and renderings, even when it would come all in chrome reflected. This is a good example of how 3D renderes went much faster developed virtually in programming of what is possible to be built by physics. In computer you can do all with talent people, but in reality, well... already real, unfortunatly. Makes me sad, because I know it is another project to be filled in the X-files pill in a desk of those many architectural studios worldwide, one more of thousand already made. Surely another exercise what's possible in computers about architecture to be presented some kind of symposium, things like that... We all know > 95% boxes post-modern and some rare odd forms are the reals. Pity but truth is truth. And where is the immense money to do so... well, finance crises go higher until at least 2013, then...

Verex plaza is the shit. Its made even doper by the fact that its in a neighbourhood that consists almost entirely of stand alone, 1800's and early 1900's mansions. Like a spaceship landing during War of the Worlds...

Any idea who designed it?

This greenery filled Beehive Tower for Heron Quay, London is a vertical farm inspired by the hexagonal forms of the honeycomb. Designed by Rory Newel & Lucy Richardson, the 220m high ‘Hive' is a place for green thumbs to reside and to cultivate all kinds of plants, especially edible ones. The structure features a number of sustainable systems such as an army of wind turbines that sits atop it and a rainwater collection system to water the crops within it.

Using Nature as Inspiration for Puerto Rico’s First Real Skyscraper

Situated between the Golden Mile, a bustling commercial sector, and barrios of impoverished residents, Hato Rey, Puerto Rico is located in an important, and ever-evolving spot. This makes the location ideal, says architecture student Clara Tresgallo Parés, for an innovative skyscraper: because of its visible location en route to Old San Juan, which is visited by large numbers of tourists annually, a creatively designed build would be admired by countless people passing through.
