Most Important Buildings in the World
Through the blogvine (consisting entirely of PSFK), we've come across GQ's most important 10 buildings of the 21st century in the world. Though we can't agree full heartedly with the list, we're delighted that it has no Gehry on it. That guy needs to be plated in his own lightweight aluminum and set out to roast on a hot day. But we digress. Here's the list, courtesy of PSFK.
