Architecture

Cubism: looking at different architecture which has used cubism as a big influence, within the structure of the buildings. How the use of geometric shapes have been used to form the building, also the use of light to create different mood/colour. 
Focusing mainly on the Guggenheim, Jewish Museum in Bilbao City.
From the picture, i can see that the building is made up from simple geometric shapes (big part of cubism), they are very stiff structured shapes. Building is made form titanium and is meant to represent Fish scales. ( movement of the river) I love the simpleness of it, burt yet it creates such a dramatic effect. I would like to incorporate this in my set design some how. 

The cubism movement is also continued inside the building.
