Tallest Building Designs in the World
We've selected what we feel are the key examples of Skyscraper Designs. We aim to include tall buildings that are either of top quality or interesting, or ideally both.
We cover completed tower buildings, new Skyscraper building designs, architectural exhibitions and architecture competitions across the world. The focus is on contemporary Skyscraper buildings but information on traditional Skyscrapers is also welcome.
We have 5 pages of Skyscraper Architecture selections with links to hundreds of individual project pages.

Michael Schumacher Tower design
Design: LAVA

The Michael Schumacher World Champion Tower, the first in a series of seven towers to be built worldwide. The Michael Schumacher Tower marks a departure from traditional architectural thinking”, state the architects. The tower designers represent a new generation of architects, being responsible as associate architects for world recognised structures such as the Watercube and the Mercedes-Benz Museum. Just one year ago, they founded LAVA, the Laboratory for Visionary Architecture, a worldwide architectural network.

This bold sakyscraper design will rise 75 stories from the 17,000-square-foot-site between 53rd and 54th streets. Currently, a mix of uses is contemplated for the building including: a 50,000-square-foot expansion of MoMA’s galleries (levels two to five); a 100-room, seven-star hotel and 120 highest-end residential condominiums on the upper floors. The architects' design maximizes the site while considering the city’s zoning envelope. The proposed building’s unique silhouette tapers as it rises to a distinctive spire. Its steel and glass façade reveals the diagrid structural design.
