Favorite Building!

My favorite building it´s called Turning Torso, it a huge residencial building of over 190mts high.

I´ts located in Malmö, Sweden.

One of the things that I love about it is it’s shape, suppostly based on a human torso (like it’s name), the structure it’s turned like a spring, every floor has a different angle so it looks like it’s been rotated in 90 degrees.

It was made by Satiango Calatrava, a spanish architect on august 27 of 2005, it took 4 years to build (a really long time).

The style it´s totaly modern, and it´s made out of steel, glass and concrete, it has 9 turning cubes along a central structure.

I think it´s brilliant the way they capture nature in the proyect, that´s what makes it look so organic, even though it’s a heavy and hard structure. You can see the builing from many different angles and it’s never the same, a truely wok or art
