Needs moar 3D. Especially if you're going to throw "olympic pool" and "shipping container" in there.

Well, I wanted to focus on surface area so I chose to make most things flat. The Apple building was done in slight 3D to emphasize that it's not just a white donut but a building. The pool would only have a 3px line indicating its depth, nothing significant. The shipping container is even smaller.
