Contemporary Architecture in Spain

CaixaForum Madrid

Madrid

This original exhibition centre designed by the Swiss architects Herzog & De Meuron stands in the Paseo del Prado, next to Madrid’s famous Art Walk.

On the outside, the extraordinary vertical garden designed by the artist Patrick Blanc is sure to attract your attention. At its foot, the new building seems to levitate creating a large, partially covered square, decorated with waterfalls and enormous sculptures.
