One more classic, an exceptional building and an exceptional facade.
Rafael de la Hoz gives us this risky solution of a double skin façade where the open-jointed outer glass layer is supported only by glass ribs. A minimal and elegant solution for an amazing building.
Observe how the outline of the building fades into the sky thanks to the ethereal glazed corona that surrounds it.
