The Forum Building ((カタルーニャ語、バレンシア語:Edifici Fòrum), ; (スペイン語:Edificio Fórum)), also known as Museu Blau de les Ciències Naturals, is an architectural landmark in Barcelona designed by the Swiss architects Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Meuron (Herzog & de Meuron),. The building is triangular in shape, measuring 180 metres on each side and 25 metres in height, located within the triangle formed by Diagonal Avenue, Rambla de Prim and the Ronda Litoral. It was the symbol of the controversial 2004 Universal Forum of Cultures and the serious flaws that arose during its construction were widely covered in both the Spanish national and foreign press.〔(Architectural Flaws ), The Guardian.〕 The building has become a political bone of contention, with the opposition parties in both Barcelona Council and the Parliament of Catalonia demanding to know why it cost so much (of the order of US $144 m). The building has an auditorium with a seating capacity of 3,200 and an exhibition hall covering nearly 5,000 square metres. ==See also== * Herzog & de Meuron * 2004 Universal Forum of Cultures 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Forum Building」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
