It is quite a while that I trace the inspiration source to SANAA‘s

Zollverein School of Management & Design in Essen

SANNA’s Zollverein School of Management & Design in Essen with its unusual way of opening holes (windows) in its walls has an impressive presence in the Web.  You are invited to enter a previous post of mine, where I present some buildings that are inspired by SANNA’s “holes effect”
