SPAIN-ARCHITECTURE-AGBAR
The lights system of the new Agbar (Aguas de Barcelona) Tower is tested, 13 September 2005 before the building-s inauguration by Spanish King Juan Carlos on Friday in Barcelona. Like Gaudi before him, French architect Jean Nouvel derived the form from the obtruded rock formations in the mountains of Montserrat, an hour north-west of Barcelona. However, he compares the organic shape to -a geyser at a constant pressure-. The 35-storey, reinforced-concrete structure has a multicoloured facade that recreates the prismatic effects of a film of water. The cladding is made up of aluminium panels in 25 colours behind glass louvres.
