These are the 13 weirdest skyscrapers in the world
In an age where the population is growing and the land is of course unable to "hatch", skyscrapers are very important buildings that provide our accommodation and workplaces. In order for the work to become more prominent among the many other buildings around, architect Santino Calatrava designed the unique Turning Torse building, and created a new " movement " in architecture.
His building looked like it was twisting around a middle axis, very fancy. Since Turning Torse was built in 2005, this spiral construction technique has become famous and applied in many other buildings in Asia and the Middle East. Recently, China has just completed a skyscraper building of 630m high, and there are other buildings in Saudi Arabia, Taiwan, and New York. Here are 13 unique skyscrapers in the world:
