The conception of this project consistently derives from its underlying architecture – the theoretic conception and visual pattern of the Hamburg Kunsthalle. The Basic idea of narration was to dissolve and break through the strict architecture of O. M. Ungers “Galerie der Gegenwart”.

Tech Video: Mega-City Pyramid

To answer Tokio’s increasing lack of space, the The Shimizu Mega-City Pyramid is a proposed project for construction of a pyramid in the middle of Tokyo Bay in Japan.

The pyramid is 12 times higher than the Great Pyramid at Giza, and there would be room for 750,000 people. If built, it will be the largest man-made structure on Earth. The pyramid would be 6,575 feet high.
