Álvaro Siza – The Building On The Water

Built as an office building for an industrial factory, the “Building On The Water” is seen floating In the middle of a lake in Jiangsu, China. This visually stunning building was built in 2014 and is just as remarkable on the inside as it is on the outside. Álvaro Siza was chosen specifically to design the office with the idea a floating building as the basis. Siza recruited Architect Carlos Castanheira to aid in its design. The horseshoe shape is particularly unique and the over-saturation of neutral colors and abstract architecture gives this building a timelessly futuristic feel.
