The Grand Hayatt Hotel in the Jin Mao Tower is one of the tallest in the world. The Hotel occupies floors 53 to 87 in the building. This is a shot of its ultra-famous barrel-vaulted atrium of the Grand Hayatt Hotel Shanghai.

Behind an anonymous building facade, American architect Frank Gehry covered the atrium with a splendid morphing glass and titanium roof.
Hyatt Regency San Francisco is a hotel located at the foot of Market Street and The Embarcadero in the financial district of San Francisco, California. The hotel is a part of the Embarcadero Center development by Trammell Crow, David Rockefeller, and John Portman.
The building was sold by its owner, Strategic Hotel Capital LLC, in January 2007 for close to US$200 million to Dune Capital Management and DiNapoli Capital Partners – roughly $250,000 for each of the hotel's 802 rooms.
The Regency Club Lounge was once the Equinox, a rooftop revolving restaurant, but is now a stationary elite club for certain hotel guests offering 360-degree views of the city and the bay.
The Hyatt Regency's atrium lobby served as the lobby of the Glass Tower in 1974's The Towering Inferno. Replicas of John Portman's trademark pill-shaped elevators were built for use in the film and are featured throughout, including in an extended sequence where one is lifted from the stricken tower by helicopter. The Hotel was also featured in the 1977 Mel Brooks Comedy High Anxiety, the film Telefon from 1977, and in Time After Time (1979 film), a tale of H.G. Wells chasing Jack The Ripper into the future of 1979.
As well as being a setting for numerous films, the lobby is itself inspired by a film. Architect John Portman has stated that its design was suggested to him by viewing the 1935 science fiction film Things to Come.
...sowie angenehme Kühle herrscht in diesem Lichthof, den der Architekt Peter Behrens zwischen 1914 und 1917 im Zuge des Baus einer Fabrikanlage für die Nationale Automobil-Gesellschaft (NAG) in Berlin-Oberschöneweide errichtete.
Heute kann man in diesem Gebäude studieren, z.B. angewandte Kunst.
Ein herzliches Dankeschön an Lutz, ohne dich hätte ich das nie entdeckt!

The Library Rotterdam here (1983, van den Broek&Bakema) is a land mark. Both the building and the institution. It attracts some 2.1 million visitors per year. On 24 000 m² floor space the library's collection includes some 700,000 books. There are 9 floors and ample facilities to access the collection digitally. And it offers hundreds of workspaces to sit down and have an in depth look in the books.
This pic was shot into the characteristic glass covered central atrium.
