A new building "under construction" in the zoo...

I hope this modern sculpture is OK in an architecture thread.

I guess this could be considered modern architecture... from my trip to Las Vegas last month, where there are no shortages of interesting buildings and people. Someone from MU-43 recently had some stunning ones in his thread there, but here are a few of my snaps to add here.

I'm going through a phase of snapping interesting buildings currently. Here are a few pictures of a Zero Emissions housing development at Beddington in Surrey. It was a typically grey day for this time of year but the colourful wind cowls cheered me up.

In the center of Birmingham is a building that looks as fantastical to me as a Cathedral would have looked in the 15th century. It's a place of retail rather than religion, though I'm not sure everyone can tell the difference. It's even more appealing to me as it faces the Gothic St Martins Church.

The Blob, I love it;
