Architecture - minimalist

I recently started watching “Lie to Me” and found the building in the show to be quite appealing. I have always been drawn to glass, asymmetrical, buildings especially when they have unique angles, cantilevers and different rooflines. The building used in this show is the DC convention center.

In general I really enjoy modern architecture and specifically minimalist. I like the simplicity and lack of materials. I also love the use of see through materials. I am not one for privacy. It seems like minimalist architecture really takes advantage of light, and does not really have clutter. Here are some samples.
