  • Qatar Convention Center
    When most of us think of convention centers, we think of big empty spaces that are certainly not very environmentally friendly. That's not the case for the next generation of centers -- case in point, the very cool looking Qatar National Convention Center. The striking 177,000 square meter structure is seeking a LEED Gold Rating, a first for a building of its type in the region. When it's completed next year the center will boast <b>3,700 square meters</b> of solar panels in addition to a host of other resource-saving features.
