Ren Building (Shangai)

China has proved once again that they have to be a step ahead of everyone else, even when it comes to architecture. Designed by PLOT (which has now split into BIG and JDS) this building resembles the Chinese character “人”, which is actually a man walking. It combines two buildings, one emerging from the water and the second from the land. The first building is devoted to activities of the body and houses the sports and water culture center. The second building emerging from land, is devoted to the spirit and enlightenment, and houses the conference center and meeting facilities. The meeting point of the two buildings is a 1000 room hotel, a building for living.
