Santiago Calatrava

Penelope,
One of my favorite architects, Calatrava, has designed the new WTC Transit Center. He is also a painter and a sculptor, and most of his designs have been inspired by things he sees in the natural world. He somehow turns beautiful watercolor sketches of a something such as a fruit or animal into some of the most fantastic architecture in the world. Check out this site: http://www.calatrava.org/
