Now that is one very unique structure Bart!
Kudos to the architect! Great lighting here! Very nice sky also!
Is it a residence or a commercial building?
Thanks!

Hi Dan, it's a unique building indeed.
Here's a translation from Wikipedia:
'The Wave' is a residential complex in the center of the Dutch city of Almere, completed in 2004. Designed by architect René van Zuuk, the building is part of Citymall Almere. The complex is located on the Weerwater. The Wave features a wave-shaped facade on the north side, featuring silver-colored ALCOA RT-62 Series aluminum windows manufactured by Kolf & Molijn Facade Technology in Emmeloord. None of these windows are identical. They were all manufactured parallel, but each with a unique mitered angle. Each window in this facade is also vertically offset at a different angle. Tunnel formwork was used in the construction, with the floor and wall being poured simultaneously in concrete.
Hi Bart, it reminds me of "The Dancing House (Tancici dum)" in Prague, Czech Republic. This was designed by the late architect Frank Gehry, who just recently died in his 90s.
