Daniel Libeskind is making his mark — in all its signature jagged, geometric wonder — throughout the Lithuanian capital of Vilnius. In addition to the Modern Art Centre of Vilnius and the Vilnius Beacon sports and wellness center at the Liepkalnis ski resort, Studio Libeskind won the competition to design a new mixed-use building complex on Konstitucijos Avenue 18B. Libeskind's winning scheme is a progression of glassy volumes — with the tallest tower reaching 18-stories — Bustler
Get a glimpse of their winning scheme on Bustler.

whatever
money pit, won't be even started
Seriously read this headline as "Libeskind to design *shitty* mixed-use building..." and thought "Yep".
^ That was my first reading also lol
Damn.
what happened to this guy?
IMO it is a scale problem. I don't think the work translates well at large scale.... not in area but in volume. Maybe mid-size volumes would work better.... that rendering above looks really shopworn.

rinse and repeat till you're rich
yeah, but he was rich without all of this shiit. he's the one guy that makes Calatrava look like a fucking genius.
The Holocaust Museum guy, and this guy, not the same one.
Better than Bjarke
That's what they mean when they say it looks like the building just landed from another planet.. Looks so out of context. well.. we can bitch all we want but he's getting plenty of projects
All you haters are just jealous of Libeskinds success
its nice to be Jewish
