The auditorium of Santa Cruz, capital of Tenerife.

Designed by Santiago Calatrava.

Height of the roof: 58 meters.

The curving roof has been designed to look like an incoming crashing wave.

Capacity of the auditorium: 1,800 seats.

Completed: Fall 2003.

A couple of minutes later the light was over because a big cloud covered the sun; but some people were passing so I took this shot that gives an indication of the scale of this project.
