Remember the models that were being chosen for the new Parliamentary House? Out of the four, the one that did not get many votes was "Luon Song Ben Song", that simple rectangle with waves for a roof, WELL, it was chosen for construction. Grrr.
Here's a frontal view:

What's with the spikes in front of the building? Are those supposed to be water?

i have no clues to what u guys are talking about

That topic is burried somewhere under this forum.




Trang will dig it up soon.

Here's to lazy Tuan

Anyhoo. NQSH posted the four models that were being voted on to be Viet Nam's new Parliamentary House. The one that didn't receive many votes from the members of this forum turned out to be the one that was chosen!

Here are the four again:




The award goes to...this odd looking thingamabob:

The second one is nice. Stupid, why do they choose to build that spiky thingy.

Yah, I have no idea why those spikes are there. Oh heavens, it sure doesn't spell power.

So they picked the 3rd one huh? Darn it, they picked the ugliest model I have ever seen. LOL.

What's with the wavy roofs? What is that supposed to mean?




I should have just summited my design. LOL.



And the national monument.

I would have voted for ya! Not sure about the monument though, what is it?

i like the first two

wtf , the 3rd one is the ugliest !!!!!!

Hehhehe... the monument is a two tower joined together at the top to make a rainbow. It's going to symbolize everything under harmony and peace. It [the rainbow] represents a new age of prosperity after years wars and poverty, like a rainbow coming out after a thunderstorm.

It's about 1 mile high. And the base of 750 feet in diameter.

Yup, 5280 feet above ground level.

Looks like a horseshoe . E for Effort, Tuan. Actually, Saigon is looking into constructing a monument, you should apply.

They picked that ugly one because its easier to build then the others.
