The railway station at the Lyon, France airport designed by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava. Mr. Calatrava also designed the new train/subway station currently under construction in Lower Manhattan.

Thanks!
I just love his work! I love the organic shapes and the fact that it looks so fragile and transparant and almost weightless. My friends gave me a book on him for my birthday recently and I'm still swooning at every picture in it. Can't wait to see his buildings and bridges for myself soon.

LOL. Hmm...I see your point. Makes me wonder what the baby alien(s) will look like. The same as the parents or something completely different...

Ten days without Internet and I find three pages of photographs waiting for me to wade through. You guys have been busy.

Mind you as usual it was well worth it; this is still by far my favorite thread.

The sunset pictures were breathtaking.

This picture inspired me to do a Google search. The architect has a great web site:

I've had a good time browsing it.

Thanks for the link buzzj! I actually didn't even think of looking at his site for images of his work. I don´t know why

Where is the rest of its body? Or is this a decapitated head?
