This annex to a theatre is sinking into the ground as if it was struck by an earthquake. But it's all by design and you can still walk in and enjoy a beer at the bar.
-
Left side - At first sight you may think this building is leaning back because of the perspective view. But from the windows you can see that something is terribly wrong.
-
Right side - From the other side you can see what they did; the cubes are tilted backwards over their diagonal. In between is the entrance, to the right side an extension (with unknown purpose).
The building is clad in metal plates (stainless steel I think) which has a decorative function of course, but it also makes it light compared to stone. In photo 4 you can see that the plates have small ridges as finish.
The windows in the top half of the cubes are actually mini-billboards. Images can be projected on them from inside the building.
-
Left cube - It's virtually impossible to get a decent photo from this building, no matter what angle you choose (rotated in post-processing).
There are some inaccuracies in the size and position of the windows, but they only stand out when the cube is placed vertical artificially (photo 3).
If you compare the angle of the windows and the edges of the cubes you can conclude that the cubes are leaning about 10 degrees to the right and backwards; they are tilted over the diagonal symmetrically.
In the next photo a peek through the window in the left side of the left cube. See also photo 1, left window.
-
Left cube - Looking through the window it appears that the interior is nicely leveled out. It has a bar and an entrance to the theatre, which is the big building behind (photo 2). Kinda 60s atmosphere.
-
Right cube - The entrance between the two cubes is kept straight for practical reasons. It has the same pattern as the windows.
It was a challenge to get attractive photos from this edifice from a compositional point of view because of the weird lines, but here you are, they are suitable for documentary purposes.
