China to build super building in shape of Walking Man

We have seen some really wild houses come out of Asia but this one is just plain amazing. Although not yet built it has the makings to be one of the greatest buildings of all time.

Ren Building, Shanghai

“The REN Building is a proposal for a hotel, sports and conference center for the World Expo 2010 in Shanghai. The building is conceived as two buildings merging into one.

The first building, emerging from the water, is devoted to the activities of the body, and houses the sports and water culture center.

The second building emerging from land, is devoted to the spirit and enlightment, and houses the conference center and meeting facilities. The two buildings meet in a 1000 room hotel, a building for living.

The building becomes the Chinese sign for ‘The People’, and a recognizable landmark for the World Expo in China.
