| Here's a couple of pictures of the fantastic Bilbao Guggenheim with it's titanium facade. Designed by Frank O Gehry, the Guggenheim is just as impressive on the inside as the outside and an ingenious use of space. On the outside it looks not unlike a ship from a distance. This strikes me as quite fitting as Bilbao is an old shipbuilding city and the land that it is built on was once used as shipyards. The puppy picture is from a postcard.
