- I would love to see niko scale down that building easily, lolset
- Haha, it’s about ten feet, Lower yourself and hang-drop to each level. Or use a small ladder, either way very doable_niko

Construction begins on "The Line". 170km long city in Neom, Saudi Arabia:
- The overall width of "The Line" does not look like the 200 meters (656 feet) as promised.utopian
- They weren't kidding...grafician
- It'll only cost 500 billion, house 9 million, and be done by 2025.
http://www.reactiong…Akagiyama - Roads? infrastructure for 9M people in the desert?!
They must have a djinn somewhere doing the workgrafician - Exchanging oil for USA $'s seems like a great business. Probably will go really well as all currencies collapse against $.shapesalad
- Cost $500 billion AND 10,000 lives of Indian and Bangladeshi labourers_niko
- Maybe they really like to drivedrgs
- But why?Chimp
- apparently, in theory, cities in this layout are more sustainable. Of course sans millions of tons of steel and glass that they will use.Beeswax
- This is going to be the biggest empty carcass of human idiocy and arrogance by 2028.jagara
- At least give The Venus Project a go, i you want to build futuristic planned cities. Not that I have great faith in that. But more than this stupidity.jagara
- Who would want to live there?NBQ00
- How many 'Line' jokes can you make?Chimp

- sometimes I wonder if Gehry is just fucking with usGnash
- ^ Any doubt of this?OBBTKN
- Well, in this particular case it's the building for the Center for Brain Health after all. Quiet fitting, no?Krassy
- true, krassy :)
I haven't ben in many of his buildings but the ones I have been are wonderful.Gnash - His team is amazing. The experiential nature of his buildings gets overlooked in the snazziness. They really are some great buildings to experience.formed

- 9/11 Memorial, Las Vegas?utopian
- Fuck yes to building beautiful and unusual things.jtb26
- Ive seen that building in person. What an eye sore.shellie
- People chided Hadid for her exuberance but continually give Gehry a pass for his dross.face_melter
- Gehry's buildings are pretty practical, with a shiny skin on it. Hadid went a little more crazy all the way through.formed
- Not to mention Gehry is down to earth and she was quite the diva. Both legends in their own right, though. Both amazing.formed

- TLgrafician
- AT-Walker's hates this.utopian

- The image name includes Putin. But this is just a concept and not a real house, right?SimonFFM
- I already posted this on the next page, https://www.qbn.com/…
it's a concept name putin but not relatedgrafician - The designer's name is Roman Vlasov
https://www.behance.…utopian - He has some interesting renderings
https://www.instagra…utopian - Kinda remind me of "The Incredibles"adrok
- Horrid. But still 'better' than that gut-wrenchingly awful, and actually-built, Zaha Hadid 'Capital Hill Residence' in Russia, which likely informed this.Nairn
- I feel guilty for stealing grafician's upvotesdrgs
- chill it's a ridiculous concept anyway lolgrafician
- Krassy5

Amazing shotutopian - I believe it. I’m in love with it. Respect.jtb26
- What software does one start with to learn this kind of work?nb
- I do this for a living and it bores the shit out of me. I work with 3ds Max, Corona Render, and Photoshop. Any competent 3D modeller will do...face_melter
- ...but you need a good physical renderer to recreate the light and materials to any degree of realism.face_melter
- Blender has everything you need in one package if you want to start - learn the basics and you can transfer skills to pretty much any other 3D program.face_melter

- finally you can get the shipping container look without actually recycling shipping containerssarahfailin
- love it toointeliboy
- modern/minimal designs go back to mid century. Shipping containers are/have been a fad, mostly.formed
- The cost to convert them is about the same as building from scratch (any pre-fab is like that, more or less).formed
- Love it.
Boring bland box might be boring, but it's a far sight better than my 26m2 one-room flat.Continuity - Here's some bandages for when your kids smash into all those edges.BusterBoy
