Huge Data Center Looks Like a Circuit Board

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the hopefully-the-inside-is-as-advanced-as-the-outside dept.

1sockchuck writes to share a look at Digital Beijing, the data center for the 2008 Olympics. The huge (1.05 million square feet) building was designed to resemble a circuit board from 2 sides and a barcode from the other 2 ground-viewable sides. Looks like the nighttime view of this monster is going to be pretty impressive.

    It's so awesome that I've completely forgotten about China using children to make toys for my children, or that one time, at band camp, they used some Tibetans for target practice. Amazing architecture.
