Possibly in the near future, you’ll see a pile of large paper placed in The Hague, the Netherlands. That’s what the Zaha Hadid Architects have designed for the city’s new dance and music centre.

“The design concept is developed from an understanding of the unique urban dynamics of the site”, Zaha Hadid Architects explained. So the whole building looks just like a moving river when graced by light and shadow in the night, but when viewed from a higher place, the same building then seems like a stack of paper fluttering in the breeze. That’s really amazing.

But before you see the real building in the site, the design must beat the other two proposals from Amsterdam architects RAU and Rotterdam studio Neutelings Riedijk Architecten, and the result will be announced in November 2010.
