Designing anything, let alone a massive building, isnot a simple task. It requires pragmatic decision-making coupled with bold creativity. As with anyform of art, the designer ultimately strives to makesomething striking and original. Sometimes thiseffort pays off in the form of a lasting structure — awork that transcends time and place. While othertimes, well, not so much. Of course, it’s not alwaysthe architect’s fault. We round up the 23 ugliestskyscrapers from around the world, ones that beganwith high intentions but eventually didn’t quite meetthe mark.
设计任何事物都不是一项简单的工作,更不用说设计一栋高楼大厦了。这需要务实的决策和大胆的创意。对于任何形式的艺术品,设计师最终都要努力使其突出又新颖。有时候这种努力会创作出永恒的建筑,成为超越时间和空间的艺术品而获得成功;然而其他的时候,结果往往并不尽如人意。当然,这并不总是建筑师的错。我们搜罗了世界上最丑的23座摩天楼,每一座摩天楼在建造之初都有着崇高的意向,然而最终却并没有留下深刻的印记。
