Modern Marvels: UNIQUE BUILDINGS OF THE WORLD

When I stumble upon a uniquely designed building, I can't help but notice its beauty. When something is out of the ordinary, I'm usually drawn to it. I'm lucky to live in a city (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) with a gorgeous skyline and neighborhoods full of interesting homes. After 25 years, I'm still in awe and always finding new places to gaze at. While my hometown has some fantastic architecture, I hope to travel extensively someday and see all the world has to offer. Until then, I can virtually admire these inspiring structures!

Dancing Building. Prague, Czech Republic.

The National Library. Minsk, Belarus.

The Guggenheim Museum. Bilbao, Spain.

Solar Furnace. Odeillo, France.

Beijing National Stadium. Beijing, China.

Fuji Televsion Building. Tokyo, Japan.

Turning Torso. Malmo, Sweden.

My photo
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States
I'm living life in beautiful Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I hold a journalism degree from West Virginia University. I have worked in television news, fashion marketing, PR, and cosmetic sales. My love for writing and sharing with the world my various passions is strong. One of my many ambitions is to be published and continue creating in the fields of digital and print media, literature and film. In my free time, I enjoy listening to music, going to concerts, reading, following Pittsburgh sports and traveling as often as possible. Some of my favorite things include beauty, style, architecture, books, tarot and astrology, thrifting and my shih-tzu, Ireland. I’m engaged to the love of my lifetimes and we look forward to starting our next chapter together. If you have any questions or comments, I would love to hear from you!
