Seriously?

Sorry for my absence in the past months I had to work on my real job... life happens - oh well.  The Tianzi hotel in China is a good reason to come back though! Take a look at this SHIT! I have a hard time talking my clients into doing things like having a slightly more contemporary building by having cleaner lines or simple forms - this talented architect actually talked his client into building giant China Men to sleep in! This is a hotel!  I just love to think of the conversations that took place in the architects office when they first presented this idea - "Yes it is genius -the diagram will  be so simple, we can put the business suites in the heads and we all know where the service core will go"  and the bank actually financed it! Now if this can get built that leaves the rest of us NO EXCUSES! As this project has proven - where there is a will there is a way :)

You have to ask the question - Is there a garbage shoot?  is it where you would think?  Lets look at the back of the building.... ahh too bad these little men are whereing such modest clothes, no defined wedgie to help us out here... Do you think they have funny names for the floors such as the shoulder level, or check in at left foot number 2.  WHO BUILT THIS SHIT?
