I love the creativity of all of those buildings. Having spent some time in the construction trades when I was younger, I can only think of how challenging they were to build. Thanks for a great post!

Loved those photo's, I'm a concrete buff, how much more can be created using concrete! I wish we'd stop building with wood in the U.S., and join the rest of world and building with concrete!
