Calatrava

One thing I like about Calatrava's MAM expansion is the starkness of it all. Most of the structure is white, and there is a repetitive nature to much of the design. Though the surfaces are all one color there is a clear noticeable difference in the quality of the light as it shines into the space. The beams in the above photo are a good example of this. There is a sharp shadow on the bottom of the supports.
