Weird and funny Architectures in China

[Hiptullha]

Who said Chinese were lack of innovation and sensor of humor.

Are the architects and the firms commissioned to design and construct these buildings all Chinese?

Are all innovations done in the West 100% done by the white man?

The boss of this company is a big fan of 'Star Trek'.

Some of these buildings look very tacky indeed

But I can stand strong testaments to the marvels of these two world class structures in terms of acoustics, functionalities, comfort, ambience and external design

Some of the buildings are designed by overseas architectures
One reason for that is to gain international attentions for international clients

I appreciate the National Theater, the Water Cubic, the Drum and the Guangzhou Tower.

Personally I like buildings with soft arc more than that straight line.
