I just got back from two weeks in Nagoya and one of the highlights of my trip was seeing the new Spiral Tower in the final stages of completion. Also a senmon gakko for design students, it made the other skyscrapers in the area look quite dull.

Are you sure about that? Wouldn’t they call it the “Rice” tower instead of the “Cocoon” tower. It looks more like a silk worm cocoon than a grain of rice to me.

I understand that the design is supposed to be based upon a grain of rice.
