Auditorio de Tenerife

°


Not only sss (sangria, sand and sexonthebeach).
Tenerife offers some awesome objects.
Like this auditorium building in Santa Cruz de Tenerife.


Die Außenhaut des Gebäudes ist mit Trencadís verkleidet. Die Millionen 
Bruchstücke weißer Kacheln verleihen dem Gebäude seine strahlende 
Wirkung und sind eine Referenz an den katalanischen Architekten Antonio Gaudi,
 der diese Technik beispielsweise im Park Güell verwendet hatte. 

Trencadís also known as pique assiette, broken tile mosaics, bits and pieces, 
memoryware, and shardware, is a type of mosaic made from cemented-together t
ile shards and broken chinaware
(Wiki)


Well, by chance we saw this house in San Andrés, where the same
method has been used for the facade. I think with colours it works
much better, indeed. 




A such a challenging object for all architecture photographers.
We normal, self made wanna-be-hot-photo-shooters have fun as well.

Designed by architect Santiago Calatrava.


The majestic profile of the auditorium has become an architectural 

symbol of the city of Santa Cruz de Tenerife, the island of Tenerife and the 
Canary Islands. It is also regarded as the finest contemporary building 
in the Canary Islands and one of the most emblematic buildings 
of Spanish architecture. 

Well, this Wikipedia author seems to love the auditorium!
Honestly, it is not hard to create something nice looking,
the city of Santa Cruz actually need urgently a serious planner!


The tiny village on San Andrés has maintained its charm.


From the promenade and from the beach you can admire the cruise 
ships, which are parked here for corona reasons.


I find this colorful bridge more admirable.







Here you see a few of the stones at the ocean waterfront which 
have been decorated by pictures of some famous historical people.
Funny idea.
