The Jin Mao (金茂大厦) in Pudong at 93 floors is one of the tallest building in the world, but only 3rd tallest building in Shanghai. Opened in 1988, the architecture takes in account the Chinese tradition of pagoda, of course in different scale. Designed paradoxically by Chicago company (SOM). Main occupant is Hyatt Hotel from 54th to 88th floors. In elevator, on the way to the top we met Anthony - a Chinese American originally from Seattle. After a brief conversation, he mentioned that he was the General Manager of the hotel. He suggested going the 85 floor for the best view of the atrium and he was right. The view from the hotel top floors may be spectacular, but we could not experience it, as the whole city was shrouded in heavy fog. The Hyatt's famous barrel-vaulted atrium is approximately 115 m (377 ft). It is actually the second tallest atria ** in the world, the tallest being the Burj Al Arab's.

After an year not very easy, this long month away from home, I really wanted it! :)
I carry with me a large baggage of emotions and memories linked to every place I visited...Rotterdam, and its spectacular modern architecture stole my heart the genius of the architects and the huge heat weather I didn't expect to find in Holland! :D

The pavilion of EXPO 2008 takes the form of a typical Aragonese wicker basket achieved by intertwined panels of glass and micro-concrete with white glass fibre, providing the interior with a large quantity of natural light. This weave is opaque in the base, becoming more transparent as the building gets higher.
Le pavillon de l'EXPO 2008 prend la forme d'un panier en osier aragonais typique réalisé par des panneaux entrelacés de verre et de micro-béton avec de la fibre de verre blanche, fournissant à l'intérieur une grande quantité de lumière naturelle. Ce tissage est opaque dans la base, devenant plus transparent à mesure que le bâtiment monte.
