Rem Koolhaas in Portugal: Casa da Música, Porto.

Casa da Música is a major concert hall space in Porto, Portugal which houses the cultural institution of the same name with its three orchestras Orquestra Nacional do Porto, Orquestra Barroca and Remix Ensemble. It was designed by the world-famous Dutch architect Rem Koolhaas. The New York Times classified it as the "most attractive project the architect Rem Koolhaas has ever built" and saying it's "a building whose intellectual ardor is matched by its sensual beauty". (Info from Wikipedia). Depicted above is the entrance to the concert hall.
