Hi,

does anyone have a better render of this amazing proposal by Herzog & de Meuron for the GazProm tower in St. Petersburg, Russia? Looking for a bigger render, and no luck with google...btw, I think the Toronto design review committee should propose a revision of 1 Bloor E to something more like this!

WOW that is another very original twisty building from them. There is another one of there twisty buildings going up in Germany, I think, it is a thread in this section of the forum.

It looks like a giant glass smokestack. Definitely fitting for a Gazprom project.

Or a thin plume of steam.

It is amazing and painfully asymmetrical. An attention grabbing demonstration of engineering capability doesn't always constitute fine high-rise architecture.
