Dream Hotel Downtown New York
I was blown away by the design of this hotel, Modern with its block like structure and its portal windows was a dream made true by Handel Architects.
I will be in New York this december and this hotel will definitely be a destination !
“The tiles reflect the sky, sun, and moon, and when the light hits the façade perfectly, the stainless steel disintegrates and the circular windows appear to float like bubbles. The orthogonal panels fold at the corners, continuing the slope and generating a contrasting effect to the window pattern of the north façade” by Handel Architects
Its located in the meet packing district ( Luxury and Bling Blings all the way)

Café del Arco/Clavel Arquitectos
Located in the Heart of Murcia, south-east of Spain.
It is not your ordinary Cafe in Spain that only serves ” tapas” it takes it further, and the design of the place gives it more depth and modernity with respect to its surrounding, but architectural mechanisms where used to blend in the building with the public space..
i will definitely have it in my checklist when in Spain…
The House of Rosario
Gaudi’s last civil project. located in the heart of Barcelona ,is an outstanding piece of art, that adds tons of cultural weight to Barcelona being second contender after Madrid to be the art and fashion capital of spain..
