Digital Beijing, Beijing Olympic Park, China Pei Zhu

Digital Beijing, Beijing Olympic Park, China Pei Zhu

2008

This 57m-high structure, which provided communication and information services during the 2008 Beijing Olympics. The northern and southern sides represent barcodes, while the western and eastern façades replicate the look of an integrated circuit board. When vertical grooves in those facades take a diagonal jog before straightening out again, they resemble the routing of wires on a circuit board.
