10 incredible ideas for buildings of the future: iceberg, Mars and farm house
For the average citizen, almost all skyscrapers look the same — these are huge towers of glass and concrete, which differ from each other only in height. Only architects can see a significant difference between them.

eVolo magazine held an annual contest of interesting architectural ideas, in which 3 best concepts were selected out of 444, and another 22 projects received honorable mentions.
