La Grande Arche de La Defense

Designed by Johan Otto von Spreckelsen in 1989. Every bit of the gigantic Grande Arche shows no sign of compromise. What's particularly twisted is the fact that although the Grande Arche is located on the same straight line stretching from the Louvre Museum through Champs Elysees Avenue and the Arc de Triomphe, the Arche itself is facing slightly askew. In the picture above, the line of darker tiles goes straight to the Arc de Triomphe. Notice that the Arche is slightly looking left.
