Al Hitmi office building

This is the very unusual (and picture is not distorted!) Al Hitmi office building, something we missed last time in Doha and wanted to see on this trip. It’s across from the spectacular Museum of Islamic Art (previous picture, copied in from another gallery), so I can see how I wasn’t looking in this direction.

A maritime theme, posted earlier.

The angles here are something else. I wonder what it would be like inside the one on the right. V

certainly puts a new slant on office building design..

That leaning building would make me nervous to work in but photographing from it would work. Great reflections too!

If you have the money, you can build everything. Must be awesome to work in such an office building.

Would love to see how they brace those slant sides to keep them from falling down! Very adventurous construction.

There is a fancy condo in Las Vegas that tilts like this. Nice work on the photo. V
