The tallest building in the world, the Burj Khalifa in Dubai is iconic. It was designed by the people behind the Willis Tower (formerly the Sears Tower) in Chicago and the people who are currently working on the One World Trade Center in New York City, which will be the largest building in the Western Hemisphere and the third largest in the world.

 

The y-shaped floor-plan of the building is apparently based on the Hymenocallis flower. It provides the highest possible outdoor views and exposes the building to the most available natural light.

 

The building also boasts records for the building with the most floors, the building with the highest residential property, the world's longest elevators, the world's highest nightclub, the world's highest restaurant and the world's second highest swimming pool.
