This morning, the jury at the international St. Petersburg Pier competition announced "The Lens" proposal as the winning entry. Designed by Los Angeles firm Michael Maltzan Architecture in collaboration with landscape architects Tom Leader Studio, the scheme proposes a network of looping walkways and sweeping bridges which will add a landmark to the waterfront of St. Petersburg, Florida. The jury, three architects and two elected officials, selected the concept unanimously. — bustler.net

hmmm. maybe that one more like the danish pavillion..
Orhan, the spiral path is where the similarities stop. This architect-on-architect hate train gets really tiring sometimes.
who and where you got the 'hate' thing? it is a big word you are chewing in your mouth. i was simply checking something from my memory. you have got a chip on your shoulder. i like maltzan's work in general. this challenging orhan on his every word, even on his jokes is getting 'really' tiring... building who?
attaching the link to raw url instead of text is obviously hateful. and the lack of capitals. it all adds up. big hate machine that orhan...
