UK - London - Monument Building 01_sq_DSC2968
This distinctive facade of the MAKE Architects Monument Building forms a striking, dare I say incongruous, background for the Monument to the Great Fire of London.

From MAKE Architects website : "We’ve further enhanced this setting with our building’s distinctive south facade, which acts as an impressive backdrop to the landmark. Designed through complex parametric computer modelling, this frontage comprises a full-height curtain of vertical twisted metal ribbons that not only play on the gilded ‘flames’ crowning the Monument, but also offer solar shading and interesting vistas into the new building.
Once complete, this building will redefine Monument Yard and reflect the dynamism of this part of the City. Its facade will be a striking feature – one that complements and enhances the historic sculpture beside it."
