the Operahouse in Copenhagen.

It looks really cool at night because of the reflective roof.

Cheers for posting Q-Man.

It's not bad imo, I like glass buildings a lot because they will generally age well. Nice and shiny.

Since you mentioned new libraries I would like to post our new one as it is impressive imo, opened 2013 and looks a bit like a cake, or a gift or something:



Sometimes they change it to different colours, one time they changed it to claret and blue for Villa (I took this pic):



This was for the Sikh festival, Vaisakhi, :



For LGBT:

I like it. It kind of reminds me of a fireplace.

I really like the warm colors here. More buildings should have lights. It just looks great at night.

It's pretty cliche tbh.

It's in a modern style but come on, it's not like that concept hasn't been executed a million and 8 times in the past. Kind of like how Pollock ripoffs are generally more lazy than creative.
