The Eden Project is a visitor attraction in Cornwall in the

United Kingdom. Inside the artificial biomes are plants that

are collected from all around the world. The project is

located in a reclaimed Kaolinite pit, located 1.25 mi (2

kilometres) from the town of St Blazey and 5 kilometres (3

mi) from the larger town of St Austell, Cornwall.[1]

The complex is dominated by two huge enclosures

consisting of adjoining domes that house thousands of

plant species,[and each enclosure emulates a natural

biome. The domes consist of hundreds of hexagonal and

pentagonal, inflated, plastic cells supported by steel

frames. The first dome emulates a tropical environment,

and the second a Mediterranean environment.

2- Jean-Marie Tjibaou cultural center

Architect Renzo piano

The Jean-Marie Tjibaou Cultural Centre, on the narrow Tinu

Peninsula, approximately 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) northeast of

the historic centre of Nouméa, the capital of New Caledonia,

celebrates the vernacular Kanak culture, the indigenous

culture of New Caledonia, amidst much political controversy

over the independent status sought by the Kanaks from

French colonial rule. It opened in June 1998 and was

designed by Italian architect Renzo Piano and named after

Jean-Marie Tjibaou, the leader of the independence

movement who was assassinated in 1989 and who had a

vision of establishing a cultural centre which blended the

linguistic and artistic heritage of the Kanak people

The Getty Center, in Brentwood, Los Angeles, California, is a campus for the J. Paul

Getty Trust founded by oilman J. Paul Getty. The $1.3 billion center, which opened on

December 16, 1997,[2] is also well known for its architecture, gardens, and views

overlooking Los Angeles. The center sits atop a hill connected to a visitors' parking

garage at the bottom of the hill by a three-car, cable-pulled tram. The center draws 1.3

million visitors annually.

It is one of two locations of the J. Paul Getty Museum. This branch of the museum

specializes in "pre-20th-century European paintings, drawings, illuminated

manuscripts, sculpture, and decorative arts; and 19th- and 20th-century American and

European photographs".[3] Among the works on display is the painting Irises by Vincent

van Gogh. Besides the museum, the center's buildings house the Getty Research

Institute (GRI), the Getty Conservation Institute, the Getty Foundation, and the

administrative offices of the J. Paul Getty Trust, which owns and operates the center.

The center also has outdoor sculptures displayed on terraces and in gardens. Designed

by architect Richard Meier, the campus includes a central garden designed by artist

Robert Irwin. GRI's separate building contains a research library with over 900,000

volumes and two million photographs of art and architecture. The center's design

included special provisions to address concerns regarding earthquakes and fires.

5- New British library

The British Library is the national library of the United Kingdom.[2] The library is a major research library, holding over 150 million items from many

countries, in many languages[3] and in many formats, both print and digital: books, manuscripts, journals, newspapers, magazines, sound and music

recordings, videos, play-scripts, patents, databases, maps, stamps, prints, drawings. The Library's collections include around 14 million books,[4]

along with substantial holdings of manuscripts and historical items dating back as far as 2000 BC. British Library is one of the two largest libraries

in the world, the other being The Library of Congress.

As a legal deposit library, the British Library receives copies of all books produced in the United Kingdom and Ireland, including a significant

proportion of overseas titles distributed in the UK. It also has a programme for content acquisitions. The British Library adds some three million

items every year occupying 9.6 kilometres (6.0 mi) of new shelf space.[5]

The library is a non-departmental public body sponsored by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport. It is located on the north side of Euston

Road in St Pancras, London (between Euston railway station and St Pancras railway station) and has a document storage centre and reading room

at Boston Spa, Wetherby in West Yorkshire.

The library was originally a department of the British Museum and from the mid-19th century occupied the famous circular British Museum Reading

Room. It became legally separate in 1973, and by 1997 had moved into its new purpose-built building at St Pancras, London
