Habitat 67 was designed by Moshe Safdie as a pavilion for Expo '67, but was originally his architecture master's thesis project at McGill University. Habitat 67 comprises 354 identical, prefabricated concrete forms arranged in various combinations, reaching up to 12 stories in height. Together these units create 146 residences of varying sizes and configurations, each formed from between one to eight linked concrete units.

The unmistakable Bank of China Tower is visible near the right edge of the frame. Victoria Peak lies behind Bank of China.
Hong Kong Island has by far the most stunning profile of any city I've visited. I have tried to capture it here, but the scale can not be fully appreciated in this small format. The colors and reflections are made even more eye-catching by the massive neon-lighting on the skyscrapers, put up to celebrate Year of the Rabbit.
Richard Neutra's Kun House I, 7960 Fareholm Drive, Los Angeles CA. Architect Richard Neutra. Designed with Gregory Ain. Sold to Bruce and Kimi Westcott. Sold in 2008 to Gerald V. Casale as a trust. Brilliantly restored by Casale, James Rega, and Christopher Steele. Won a 2015 LA Conservancy Award. Gerald Casale Puts His Hollywood Hills Richard Neutra Masterpiece On The Market (01/27-2015).
Richard Neutra — the Viennese architect who took the cool, polished details of European Modernism and adapted it to the California landscape — designed this sleek house in stucco, steel, and glass for journalist Joseph Kun in 1936. After a series of owners (Neutra went on to build another house for this client nearby, known as Kun House #2) Devo co-founder Gerald Casale, a longtime admirer of the house, bought it in 2007 and embarked on a seven-year restoration. Casale put the 3-bed, 2-bath house on the market with an asking price of $3.5M.
This house has a spectacular city and ocean view. Beautifully restored and very nearly original. About 1700 square feet, you enter from Fareholm Drive into an airy entry pavilion, which opens onto a huge deck, with the most amazing vista. The entry pavilion has a terrific uplight, and like most of the house, has the original aluminum silver paint magnificently restored. The next level down has the living room and dining room, kitchen and laundry room. Down one more level are two nice bedrooms and two bathrooms. Each of these levels have very spacious wraparound decks. Below this are several terraced levels of landscaped grounds.
The Kun house is also important because a young photographer named Julius Shulman was so captivated by the house in 1936 that he took some casual snapshots of it, which got to the architect Neutra. Neutra was so impressed that he used Julius Shulman nearly exclusively for the rest of his career. Julius Shulman is now 97 years old and still taking great photographs.

1933 Old Millfun, Shanghai, China
The 1933 Old Millfun used to be the Shanghai Municipal Council Slaughterhouse. It was finished in 1933 and designed by British architecture master Balfours, with the fame as the “largest slaughterhouse in Far East”. It was built in cool European style with the Basilican elements, making a perfect matching of the modern architecture art with the processing requirements. The whole building presents a peculiar layout and artistic space that is square in the outside and round in the inside, with winding passages and randomly scattered rooms. Though looking like a maze, the whole place is designed in clear order. After 76 years, the building is still well preserved as the “Hongkou District Historical Heritage” and “Good Historical Building” in Shanghai.
After the complete renovation and creation, the 1933 Old Millfun presents a brand new look, integrating the functions of “information release, exhibition, exchange and business”. Many international brands held their promotion events here, and a number of well-known enterprises have moved in. In July 2009, “Window of Creative in Shanghai” was formally launched in 1933 Old Millfun as the first public service platform for the exhibition, publicity, evaluation and trade of local original design products.

Together these units create 146 residences of varying sizes and configurations, each formed from between one to eight linked concrete units.
The model was finished for the second deadline (2012 June). By bending some rules we were able to gain access to the laser cutter and at least cut out the delicate railing. Still the overall man hours exceeds 200 h and as mentioned in the previous comment it is a triumph for the machine. There is a lot more footage of this piece assembly and manufacturing. Hopefully all of that will be composed into a video at some point in the future. Meanwhile other projects are waiting to be finished.
General's Tomb
Located at Ji’an, Jilin Province, this pyrmaid style sturture is a royal tomb to the 20th emperor of the Ancient Koguryo Kingdom (277 BC - AD 668). It is estimated that it was built between end of 4th and beginning of 5th century. The tomb is height at 12.4m, with sides of lower base at 31.5m and sides of upper base at 16.5m. The whole structure was built with high quality granite so that it stands the atest of time, i.e., over 1500yrs of weathering, freezing and thawing. It is also an architectural master piece of the eastern cultural. Why? it carries lots of elobrated ceilings of wide area without support of column while these ceilings carry heavy loads of stones above. As thus, it has been regarded as Eastern Pyramid.

The Pump House, one of the few remaining remnants of Park Moderne, an avant-garde country artist's retreat from the 1920's.
From the LA Times, 2001: The first subdivision in Calabasas wasn't a swank gated community or collection of mini-mansions of the kind the city is famous for today. It was a rakish art colony full of eccentric little cottages and studios, some designed by modern architectural master Rudolph Schindler.
Park Moderne was modest, with 174 small lots that sold for $525 each. Many owners built their own homes, some tiny cottages with no amenities but the sound of flowing creeks and the nightly hooting of owls.
The 400-square-foot cottages Schindler designed for the project are now so altered as to be unrecognizable. The colony was doomed by the building boom that transformed Calabasas starting in the 1960s.

The Port Royal School' s 1911 building is significant at the local level under Criterion C for its association with Wilson and Sompayrac, which was one of the most significant architectural firms operating in South Carolina at the time of the Port Royal School's construction and today widely considered to be architectural masters of the early twentieth century. In addition, both the 1911 and the 1954 buildings at the Port Royal School are significant at the local level under Criterion A for their direct association with Port Royal's uniquely complicated history of racial segregation in the years following the collapse of the Port Royal Experiment during the American Civil War. During the period from 1911 to 1954, the Port Royal School managed to reflect the period's conflicting approaches to school segregation and separate-but-equal funding of education in the state of South Carolina, including as a recipient of Federal Impact Aid construction funds in the early 1950s and as a fixture of white advantage even when Equalization funds were finally expended on behalf of Port Royal's black students in 1954.
