These are buildings whose reflective surfaces make them appear to blend into the landscape. They're like the architectural equivalent of the scramble suits from Philip K. Dick's novel A Scanner Darkly.

The first invisible skyscraper ever: the 1,476 ft (450 m) tall Infinity Tower, by GDS Architects, plans unveiled in September 2013.

Cameras will be mounted at six strategic points; thousands of LED screens on the facade will then broadcast the real-time photos captured and logged by the cameras.
