3D Model of Building / Views

Not a sculpture, not a monument, but a building...
Designed in 1958 by André Waterkeyn for the International Exhibition of Brussels.
Now it is used as a Center of Arts & Design.
It represents a crystal mollecule of metal, remember that in those years everything related with atoms & nuclear energy was a "fashion" thing.
It has 102 meter heigh or 334 ft.

I´ve made one sphere transparent to show the floors inside. This is an amazing building. Tottaly revolutionary even today and I think for a long time.

EDIT: You can´t loose this Atomium, made by CyberZorglup. He lives near it so he made it better than me
