MVRDV'S WATER CUBE

They created the concept of a, “pure visible block” extracted from the ocean that aims to express the unmediated beauty and power of the sea. The prospect of staring straight into watery depths from the safety of dry land sounds intriguing, but we will have to wait until the 2012 Expo to find out.
