The Most Spectacular Buildings That Were Never Built - By Claire Cottrell


The Most Spectacular Buildings That Were Never Built   -  By Claire Cottrell

The A+D Museum, our favorite innovative West Coast exhibition space for all things architecture and design, just launched aKickstarter to finish up an ambitious show slated to open this spring titled Never Built: Los Angeles. The fascinating project asks the big “what if” about the many visionary but never realized projects that would have made one of the world’s most criticized cities one of its most innovative. Co-curated by Sam Lubell and Greg Goldin and designed by the celebrated firm Clive Wilkinson Architects, the show not only chronicles a fascinating chapter in a reluctant city’s history, it also champions the simple notion of dreaming big.
Inspired by the idea, we decided to take a more global look. From Frank Lloyd Wright’s daring design for a resort high atop the Hollywood Hills to Antonio Gaudi’s grand, unrealized hotel in Manhattan, click through to check out some of the world’s most spectacular buildings that never made it off the drawing board.
