Unfortunately, I've had to start
watermarking my images, as it seems
there are many uncredited copies
floating around- some even with other
Websites' URL on it. If you'd like to
use my images, by all means, just ask.

This iconic new addition to the Beijing
skyline combines the entire process of
TV making -- administration, production,
broadcasting -- into a single loop of
interconnected activity. Two structures
rise from a common production platform,
each with a different character: one is
dedicated to broadcasting, the second to
services, research and education. They
merge at the top to create a
cantilevered headquarters for
management.
Built directly adjacent to the CCTV,
the Television Cultural Center (TVCC)
will house public programs on site
including a theater, cinemas,
restaurants and five-star accommodation.
The building will also serve as the
international broadcasting center for
the 2008 Olympics.
Site:
20 hectares in new Central Business
District
Program:
CCTV total 465.000m2 including
administration, program offices, news
production, broadcasting, program

TVCC total 95.000m2 including hotel,
public facilities, parking and service
building
Budget:
5 billion RMB (850 million euro)
