buildings that change colors
One of the most recently built buidings in Minneapolis, The Target Corporation Headquarters, lights up and changes colors at the top. I want to know how many other buildings have a similar effect, if any.

There's an office building in North Dallas that at night changes colors every few seconds...

Thunder Bay's Casino has a large box on top that changes colours using LED, and sometimes has a strobe effect or just blinks slowly like a light house. We make a joke that it is a homing beacon so the drunks know where to go. :)

Is the casino one on the hotel part of the casino? because if it is, it seems like it would be hard to sleep.

The Torre Agbar in Barcelona has 4500 led devices in its facade, allowing it to blend in to the sky during the day, and become brightly coloured at night.

There are many, & I mean many buildings now that have some sort of color changing theme weather its using LED's or Fiber Optic's as the light source. LED's have become more popular in recent years due to their low energy consumption & longer lifespan than traditional light bulbs.

Although it doesn't change color, MetLofts in downtown Los Angeles has a really cool nighttime display where the side of the building looks like a giant DDR screen.

well, not really in a building highrise, but in a building tower atop a building highrise. The TV Antenna Globo digital in Sao Paulo of 115m changes the rainbow lights. It is beautiful, but although i made better some photos my own, i cant post it here. So i found this as example:

Mdiederi, that coloured wall looks amazing - what building is it from?
The Allianz arena in Munich is home to two football teams, it is lit up red when Bayern Munich play, and blue when 1860 Munich Play. When the national team plays, it is white - following the colour of the national strip. On special occasions, it looks like this: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...a.blue.red.jpg Joachim Schneider, Wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Al...a.blue.red.jpg |
The Monarch in Austin. The building is so named because the roof has two structures that are angled upward like the wings of a butterfly. It's a residential building. We have another building that recently went through a renovation. It's a 25 year old 20-story office building. It has a few lights on the upper floors that change color, although I don't think it's anywhere near as elegant as The Monarch is.
Construction thread here. It was completed last year. http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/showthread.php?t=146800 Some video and photos I shot of it last year. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2549/...6982c2d5_o.jpg http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2639/...62cb6051_o.jpg http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2445/...03543e49_o.jpg http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2509/...8840edf5_o.jpg |
