Fluidr / 973 ~ the Dancing House by Teresa Teixeira

View Large On Black

The singularities of the building of Casa da Música reminded me of other singular buildings I found in other cities. This one that I saw in Prague last year is also very striking...

Dancing House (Tančící dům) occupies a fine position by the Vltava River. This stunning building, constructed between 1992-1996, is somewhat of a rarity in Prague: a modern, glass building surrounded by historic architecture.
Dancing House has daring, curvy outlines, which led its architects, Vlado Milunc and the American Frank O Gehry, to initially name it the "Astaire & Rogers Building", after the legendary dance duo.
