Located in Saint-Etienne in France, the Aztec Serpent office is an architectural dream bringing in all the building wonders modernity has to offer. Designed by Manuelle Gautrand Architecture, the building stands alone as a silver block, cut out in its underbelly and highlighted in yellow.
As it soaks up the sun through its numerous windows, this building will not only break modern boundaries, but can also supplement energy. The Aztec Serpent office will definitely become a hub for businesses and tourists alike.
