In 2004, the downtown Seattle Public Library opened amid fanfare and controversy. It was designed by architects Rem Koolhaas and Joshua Prince-Ramus of the Dutch firm OMA (Office for Metropolitan Architecture) and built by the Hoffman Construction Company of Portland, Oregon. Since its completion, the building has received mixed reviews. Whether or not critics and the public find it appealing, it provides truly endless photographic possibilities.
Massive amounts of glass and steel went into the construction, giving it a much warmer feeling from the inside than the outside.
from all the angles, I wish you Happy Chinese New Year,
