Skyscraper - This is not necessarily a gray rectangular box made of glass and concrete. Modern architects demonstrate the wonders of ingenuity by erecting multi-meter buildings of the most incredible forms.

From the outside it seems that such original designs simply cannot be sustainable, however, most of these skyscrapers are able to withstand an earthquake of about 9 points. In today's selection collected the most unusual skyscrapers in the world.

  • 7. Tower of the Revolution, Panama
  • 6. Aqua, Chicago
  • 5. O-14, Dubai
  • 4. Torres de Hercules, Andalusia
  • 3. Kingdom Center, Riyadh
  • 2. Turning Torso, Malmo
  • 1. AlDar Tower, Abu Dhabi

10. Torre Agbar, Barcelona

This building has unusual lighting. 4,000 LEDs are integrated into the skyscraper skin, and the cladding itself consists of colored metal panels. By changing lighting modes, you can completely transform the look of the Torre Agbar.

9. Bourge al-Arab, Dubai

The famous Sail is the most photographed building in the world. The height of the skyscraper is 321 meters, it is located on an artificial island connected to the continent by a 300-meter concrete road. Here is one of the most expensive hotels in the world.

7. Tower of the Revolution, Panama

4. Torres de Hercules, Andalusia

The height of the two towers, united by a glazed passage, is 126 meters. The attention to the skyscraper is attracted by the unusual concrete decor of the facade, which is a pattern with the phrase “Non Plus Ultra” encrypted in it (nowhere else).

3. Kingdom Center, Riyadh

This skyscraper of unusual construction was awarded the nickname "opener". The total height of the tower is 302 meters, and the observation platform at the top of the building is a 50-meter promenade called Sky Bridge.
