Aiola Island is full of glassy curves, delicious coffee

Aiola-Island.jpg

If you ever find yourself out in Graz, Austria, you may want to pay a visit to Aiola Island, a man-made structure that bridges the banks of the Mur River. Opened in 2003, Aiola Island not only has a cool, conch-shell design, but houses a bar, a sunbathing area and a coffee house. It was designed by New York architect Vito Acconci.

It also looks pretty sweet all lit up at night. Check out the gallery below for a few additional views.
