Ring...ring. Ring...ring.



The globalplayer Telefónica (Spanish Telecom) has opened two years ago its spanish headquarters, designed by famous architect Rafael de La-Hoz Castanys. It occupies 200.000 squaremeters formed of various buildings creating a great rectangle where 18.000 employees are working.

Beautiful building... it's even more beautiful than the Telefónica building from here (which is a big old-school mobile phone).

Totally amazing building. Such contrast to earlier traditional style and those of moorish influence. Ive been to Spain in 1969 but only Barcelona. I'd love to go to Madrid now.

very neat at abstract photo.
Love the treatment of the facade, though I have to wonder what's going on.

the glass is held away from the wall by these smaller partitions...why? It seems like a lot of work for no real reason.
