Mountaintop Roof Villa By Zhang Lin, Beijing, China

China is known for its crazy design and architecture. The Tianducheng development in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, is filled with grand European buildings and wide walkways. Ornate fountains and statues also line the streets of the town. During its construction in 2007, a replica of the Eiffel Tower standing at 108 metres was even built. There is also a replica of a fountain from the Luxemburg Gardens in a main square called Champs Elysées.
Last year developers began building 39 Palladian mansions in a Beijing suburb at a cost of £10m to create the country's most expensive housing estate. The Western-style mansions with tall columns and impressive entrances wont look out of place on a sprawling English estate. Last month China unveiled a gigantic glowing doughnut-shaped hotel in Huzhou, near Shanghai.
The 27-storey Sheraton Huzhou Hot Spring Resort, looms over the skyline offering 321 spacious guest rooms, including 44 suites and 39 villas. It also unveiled plans to build sky-high farms - towers in Tai Po, Hong Kong, that would grow rice, fruit and vegetables on each of the levels. The country has also laid claim to the title of the world's largest building - the The New Century Global Center in Chengdu, Sichuan province, which could 20 Sydney Opera Houses inside. The country's new tallest building - the 2,073ft Shanghai Tower, has also just been completed in the city's financial district.
