STUNNING WORKS OF ARCHITECTURE:BUILDING 1


Beautiful buildings can certainly inspire, with people willing to travel thousands of miles to discover the masterpieces of famous architects.
Whilst some architects like to adhere to the traditional lines and trends in the field of architecture, others simply love to experiment and leave a personal trace throughout their creations.
By allowing their creativeness and passion to flow freely, architects have been able to create wonderful structures that bring in front of people edifices that inspire awe and true admiration.
The Infosys Headquarters in Pune, India is a beautiful high-tech building. The entire structure actually looks like a descending spacecraft, and this illusion is mainly created by its shape technology: an ellipsoid structure with a tilted angle at approximately 10 degrees.
The building was the first occupant of the IT Park called “Rajiv Gandhi Infotech Park”. Within this park, there are currently approximately 20 software company headquarters, among others names like Mindtree, Tata Technologies, Tech Machindra and CISCO.
The Infosys building definitely stands out from all the others, and it is dubbed as being one of the most innovative and beautifully designed structures in Pune area. The giant “spaceship” style futuristic building was constructed based on the designs of architect Hafeez Contractor, a highly respected Indian architect known lately for his involvement in “green” architecture designs.
The Infosys building has 5 stories and it is made of a combination of steel, glass and aluminum.
