The Guggenheim Museum Bilbao,Spain

Museum of Guggenheim Bilbao - what a great success!!! The astonishing building was drawn by the architect Frank Gehry and was opened to the public in 1997,was immediately vaulted to prominence as one of the world’s most spectacular buildings in the style of Deconstructivism. 




the Guggenheim Museum was hailed as “the greatest building of our time” by fellow architect Philip Johnson. Gehry’s unique curved design lends the building the effect of billowing silver ribbon, its highly reflective silver exterior fully intended to maximise the radiance of the Spanish sun.
