China's Olympics bubble building

By Rain Noe - August 6, 2007

in Object Culture

About a year from now the Beijing Olympics will kick off, and visitors will be treated to the sight of some unusual buildings: Herzog & de Meuron's much-ballyhooed National Stadium, a/k/a the "Bird's Nest," and the lesser known but no less interesting National Aquatics Center, which turns bubbles into structure. Wired's got some cool pics of the NAC "Water Cube," which should be finished this October.
