The Willis building

Loved the architecture of this office block in the heart of the city of London.



Reflected in the windows is Lloyds of London






At the front of the building is a number sculpture entitled 'One through Zero' by Robert Indiana. They stand out against the black and grey buildings that surround them.

  9. The reflection on the second pic is amazing ! Very intriguing, this effect...

    I like the last shot too... Thoses giant numbers are so out of place... They look just like you had photoshopped them. ^^

  11. Wasn't that the building which reflected so much that some things started burning? I had read about it recently.

  12. I try and I try but still I hate these glass boxes, even if they are architectural miracles !
    The only high buildings or rather skyscrapers I ever found beautiful were in Chicago, with golden decorations and a solid old architecture.
