A few of the buildings included are: the Lazer Factory and Logistics Center, Stuttgart by Frank Barkow and Regine Leibinger; The Reichstag, Berlin by Norman Foster; the "Zollhof", Dusseldorf by Frank O.Gehry; the tower block at the Hanover Fair by Thomas Herzog and the Law Court by Gesine Weinmiller.
