mtt - that's stumped me, I'm going to take a guess at Spain?

[url= http://www.architecture.com/Awards/RoyalGoldMedal/RoyalGoldMedal2007/CentralSignalBox.aspx ]and i am the one out of a job...[/url] ๐Ÿ˜‰

I think you have thrown me a curve ball, it almost looks temporary so I am going to go with Scandinavian public building/visitor centre. No idea.

you should get this one, now this is good architecture (don't look at the image title)

Not getting the H&dM signal box is poor form ๐Ÿ˜‰ as for the coloured facade, i'd guess something by Alsop or maybe one of the Berlin practices whose name escapes me right now, the miesian detail on the previous page I dunno. That viaduct is stunning Horatio, thanks for posting it. And to keep with the rail/signal theme, how about this one..?

As someone doomed to spend a lot of time riding the much despised field edges, every time I see one of these I can't help but admire the design.

Opens both ways, selfclosing by the offsetting of the two hinge pins. Simple, elegant, reliable.

Both ageless design classics which just do what they're supposed to very well.
