QI. Capital town of Gandhinagar has been designed by (A) Norman Foster (B) BY. Doshi (©) HK. Mewada (D) Le Corbusier a Notes: The planning of Gandhinagar was done by two Indian Town Planners; Prakash M Apte & H. K. Mewada, who had apprenticed with Le Corbusier in Chandigarh planning. Bhubaneswar was planned by the German Otto Koenigsberger. Buildings by Buildings via Norman Foster: Expo MRT S jon Singapore: Hearst Tower, New York City The Hearst tower can be found on the top of the 1928 constructed office building. The tower only has 46 floors, and is 182 meters high. It was constructed between 2003 and 2006, and it is considered one very important environmentally friendly or “green” building in the world (it was actually the first such structure in New York). The design allowed for using much less steel frame than normally such a building would require (with about 25% less), thanks to its “diagrid-weaved” pattern. Other environmentally friendly patterns include the limestone heat conductive floors of the atrium, and the huge rainwater collector tank, which allows for water reutilisation inside the building (for watering purpose and for the cooling system mainly). It is also the very first building in New York to receive the Gold LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Certification. its Reichstag, New German Parliament A landmark for the German people, the Reichstag went through a restoration session in 1993.

The shape of the building was not only chosen for pure design, but it also has a very practical side: to get the best acoustic experience.
