One of the landmarks of the Shanghai skyline, I like how it dares to be different. Only in Shanghai everything looks exotic already.

I does reek of 'industry'.
Possbily needs to be experienced to be appreciated (or not).
The whirlygigs atop make this one.

You can't make a building look good simply by throwing in all kinds of unusual shapes, structures, design patterns or contruction materials. And copying others will only lead you to humiliation (that's assuming the architects have some sense of shame).
