Two links for you today.
The first is from a new hotel in Madrid, Spain. The shell/building is designed by Jean Nouvell, while each of the 12 floors within is designed by a different architect, including Nouvell along with Isozaki, Norman Foster, Zaha Hadid, and more. For photographs of the lobby, you can see them here ; check back in a couple of days for images of the rooms or go directly to here.
The next link is from Koolhouse's OEM studio, a video showing their new building. Consider it an Architecture Music Video. Interestingly, this is for a building in Kentucky. See it here. (Humour: a friend writes "I especially like the black bars over the OMA employees' eyes - to protect the overworked and underpaid.")
Aw heck, THREE architecture links! Constructed topography meets inhabitation -- in a fashion -- here.
