CCTV

Beijing's CCTV building lends an argyle je ne sais quoi.  However, the irregular web of rebar lattice poses an interesting dichotomy to Mies van der Rohe's rhythmic steel grid used at the Seagram Building.  In this case, the tighter gauge of the tartan at the entrances are fantastic as they instantly ground the occupier of the space against the magnitude of the structure. 

Architectural Haberdashery

Rem Koolhaas has design endurance that has fueled a laundry list of architectural accomplishments.
Recently commissioned to design a financial tower in London, he dressed the facade to resemble a gentleman's suit.  With a subtle, grey window pane veneer.... it tailors a fantastic "money never sleeps" impression.
