This concert hall, just completed in Aurillac, France, holds over 4,000 people and glows in changing rainbow patterns at night. In the daytime, the soaring, curved walls are otherworldly. But at night fluorescent lights that peek out from between concrete blocks create an eerie, alien look that you can see below.

Designed by architecture firm Brisac Gonzalez, this stadium is dotted with glass bricks backed by colored filters and resembles a cross between the UFO in Close Encounters and the castle walls in some kind of Flash Gordon serial.
