Tech is a bit of a hard thing to contain, nowadays. Where the 20th Century might have let you get away with the idea that technology meant microchips and motherboards, we're in an age where everything is tied up in it. That might mean networking, or complex design processes, or any number of other things.
- Technology sure has shrunk over the years: Then and now in pictures
- Life in the future: Tech that will change the way we live
In architecture, though, it means that we're seeing buildings designed and built with technology running through their very skeletons - whether it's ecologically significant power efficiency measures, or simply entirely new ways of treating glass to get better results.
We've taken a look around the world to check out some of the most impressive recent buildings that have tech in their very hearts. We'll give you a bit of an explainer, in each case, as to just what makes the building so special.
