I wondered how long it would take for Falling Water to show up on this thread. FLW is responsible for some of the most amazing sturctures on earth...

I have cufflinks made from little pieces of Falling Water. They sold them to help fund the restoration.

What buildings do you think are among the world's most beautiful?

I'll start with St. Basil's Cathedral...

Calatrava does some pretty nice work. It helps that he is an architect with a structural engineering license, too. This one is called the Milwaukee Art Museum, located in...Milwaukee.









By the way, most of the buildings posted in this thread are in no way beautiful. Some people should stop posting.

That's nice.

Now post a picture of a building that is "beautiful".

Aside from their obvious history, what is there to like about these buildings?
