Xinxiang Cultural Tourism Centre in China resembles a stack of ice cubes
A stack of nine frosted glass "ice cubes" atop a pool of water houses this cultural centre in Xinxiang, China, designed by French studios Mathieu Forest Architecte and Zone Of Utopia.
The Xinxiang Cultural Tourism Centre was designed as a sculptural icon for a new winter sports tourism district in the city, which will in future include an indoor ski slope.
