Metropol Parasol

I was excited to find these images of the striking Metropol Parasol in Seville by German architect J Mayer H.  The Metropol Parasol is described as an ‘icon’ but it actually is a multiuse piece of architecture that has a number of functions designed to make the plaza it is located in more attractive to the local community.  It is the largest mostly wooden structure in the world to be held together by glue.  Isn’t the Metropol Parasol amazing?
