Norman Foster.

While flipping through an architecture book I stumbled across this fellow, Norman Foster. And he basically blew my mind. Just check out this bridge he designed with a little help from engineer Michel Virlogeux. The Viaduc de Millau spans the valley of the river Tarn in the south of France. It is the tallest bridge in the world with one pylon being 343 mt tall. The bridge is just short of 2.5km long. Holy moley.


He also built this
And this, to live in
