This building fuses together the old and new while being on the very cutting edge of construction tech. It's a skyscraper unlike any other, and we’re going to show you how it was built.

Let’s get one thing straight. This building from Zaha Hadid Architects would not be possible without modern day technology. Specifically the computer software that architects now use to design buildings.

Or rather, it could maybe have been possible, but it would have been even more expensive and taken decades to finish. One of the reasons for this is because of the incredibly intricate glass work that’s on display here.
