This Eye-Catching Building Depicts the Albanian Map On Its Facade
Rahul Kalvapalle — February 21, 2019 — Art & Design
Architectural firm MVRDV is certainly not known for playing it safe, which is precisely why it designed the Downtown One Tirana building in the Albanian capital to be spectacularly eye-catching.
This building is set to become a true architectural beacon by virtue of its facade, portions of which will protrude out of the building to effectively depict the map of Albania.
What's great about this eye-catching building is that its facade projections won't merely create the aesthetic effect of an Albanian map, but will also help to create unique terraces and balconies, making this a fine example of functionality meeting visual appeal.
