An astonishing building

The "new" Dutch Embassy (2004) - or Embassy of the Kingdom of The Netherlands to give it its official name - is located at Klosterstraße 50, in the former East Berlin by the side of the River Spree. It's designed by OMA/Rem Koolhaas.
In 2005 OMA received the Mies van der Rohe Award for its design of the building.

This building is simply awesome. It's designed by the french architect Edouard François, for the hotel chain fouquet. The façade is a replica, in grey concrete, of the monumental façade of the fouquet hotel around the corner, but with new window holes.
Address: 46 avenue Georges V - Champs Elysée.

Progress #2

DR (Danish Broadcasting Corporation) has integrated its new radio-, TV- and multimedia activities into a new media centre. A striking feature of DR BYEN will be the new concert hall designed by the French architect, Jean Nouvel.
This is how the building looks right now. Still far from finished.
