The Eden Project
The Eden Project (located in the United Kingdom) is a showcase for global bio-diversity and one of the most innovative and high profile lottery funded projects.
The "biomes" makes up the largest plant enclosure in the world built in the lightest and most ecological way possible. They are a sequences of honey-comb shaped spheres that encapsulate humid tropic and warm temperate regions.
Make sure you check out the website. The structure(s) are amazing. Too bad it's not in the USA.

The same company/architectural team is actually going to be building one called Earthpark in Pella, Iowa (center of the state). They just fixed on a location, and plan construction to begin in 2008, to be completed in 2010. They've been trying for the past decade to get one built in the States...
here's their website: http://www.iowachild.org/
