Calatrava Tower<\/h1>\n

Calatrava Tower,<\/p>\n

This is a symbol of the pasts Olimpic games of Barcelona in the 1992, made by the famous architect Santiago Calatrava. It is a telecomunication tower with a very strange and innovative structure of 136m heght. it takes just 3 years to build this innovative desing made by stainless steel painted in white. The form try to evoke a greek athlete kneeling ready to receive a medal. Nowaday the trophy of Grand Prix of Spain has the same form and desing.<\/p>\n

The form and the inclination allow the tower to be used like a sundial but to be onest not so usefull.<\/p>\n

Calatrava Tower<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

That’s my story: I always saw the tower of Montjuic in the middle of the day, when the sun is high on the sky with his very harsh rays of light. A lot of tourists, Tour Leaders and people comes here to taking photos. A beautiful open space dedicated for the Olimpic Games. But what happen when you reach the site in late afternoon?<\/p>\n

The site can change his perspective. It is more quite, less people walk in and the shadows starts to elongate on the ground. The site now looks like a platform for space ships ready to leave the earth in a very futuristic year. At the ground some wires receiving long distance signals from the otherside of the universe. This is a base where leave everything and begin a new journey to nowhere. \u00a0It remember me the Stargate series or Star Trek movie with is famous space ship.<\/p>\n
