Svelte

The innovative architecture in downtown Doha was one of the big attractions of the city for me – it seemed like every building must have been approved for a unique design that would only contribute to the striking skyline because there wasn’t a boring, boxy building among them.

An unusually shaped building in the distance. I also liked the low-rise behind it with the interesting patterns.
