China's Cool New Buildings: Eco-Aware, Too

"10 Amazing new buildings in China" shows that China can produce impressively different architecture, in model or concept form, at least, and make it eco-friendly, too.

It's all in preparation for the 2008 Olympics in China.

Apparently, China brought in architects from around the world to work on these projects. It's a nice gesture, of course, and rather common in situations like this. Just the same, I can't help but think that, if China let its college students have computers, they might have found more Chinese architects who could do the job.
