Dessau - home of the Bauhaus. I don't know if that's less is more architecture.

As crazy as this thing sounds, it might actually work.

Are the remains to be encapsulated in concrete, or their ashes used as part of the concrete?

If the latter, the thing will last a LONG time.

The pharaohs may have set the standard, but German entrepreneurs are hoping to challenge Egypt's pre-eminence in monumental self-indulgence by building the world's largest pyramid.

And so be a cheap copy of the original. This kind of thinking annoys me. If you want to build a great mausoleum fine, but design your own style rather then ripping off someone else's idea.

Is there no artistic pride, no spark of creativity in this town?
