The spiral office
The shiny and uniquely shaped building there is the main office of the leading real estate developer in Abu Dhabi. I wonder if they just wanted to be very different from the rest or it has something to do with the symbolism that the shape is representing. Although it has a lot of meanings, I opt to associate the spiral shape with continuity.
This is my entry for this week’s photo hunt (theme: spiral).




it looks like the building is going to roll on its own anytime soon. i wonder if it was hard to do the design and might be even tougher to build it.
very creative ang designer nito
that was unique but at the same time interesting.
i’m wodering where the stairs or elevators are located…

so unique. i actually like to see the scale as to how wide it is. ill google it.
This building is by far the most unique building I have ever seen.It’s hard to imagine that people actually are inside.
very different, very creative!
Now THAT’S literally an “Oval Office.” Perhaps President Obama might consider some architectural advice from here!
