Not only Tel-Aviv has a great deal of Bauhaus buildings (which is why it is called the white city and is part of UNESCO’s world heritage sites ), but its architecture strikes visitors by the mix of old and new. Ramshackle constructions sometimes stand in the middle of modern skycrapers and, as you walk on the beach, hotels vie with architectural originality.

Built in 1972, the Transamerica pyramid is the tallest skyscraper in San Francisco. This rocket ship building inspired Star Wars sets but has unfortunately no public access except for its first floor lobby.
New-York makes you feel dizzy and incredibly small. Look up! The architecture is amazing and really diverse.
As I walked over Brooklyn bridge, I enjoyed this unusual view of the city, the skyscrapers partly hidden in the clouds in a nice grey & mocha color palette.
Boston’s architecture is very diverse : modern, historical, industrial. Brick houses, churches, skyscrapers and factories appear in a nice composition of shapes, colors and volumes.
Pictures taken in downtown and around North End.
Wandering around Montreal city…
After a walk in Mont-Royal park, “le chalet” offers a nice view over Montreal and its downtown buildings.
Siam square, the modern shopping area of Bangkok.
I would recommend you to drop by Bangkok Art and Culture Centre. A brand new and promising showcase for young Thai contemporary artists.
Berlin is underground, Berlin is diverse. Berlin has colours, Berlin has great music. Berlin is cool.
