Ireland: Concrete Canvas

An Gaelaras by O’Donnell & Tuomey is a £4 million Irish Language Cultural Center in the city of Derry, North Ireland. The glass roofed building is modeled as a 3 Dimensional Canvas brought live with color to complement the expansive stretches of concrete geometry.

A visitor looking around from any part of the Center conjures up a spectacular new seamless abstract composition.

Interestingly, the lines on the concrete were designed to match the scale of bricks. So its a brick building made in concrete!
