Searching for some modern architecture in Europe, we found this office building built in the city called Groningen. It really is an eye catcher. First thought - Zaha Hadid. But we were wrong. It's an Education Executive Agency headquarters and Tax Office building designed by UNStudio.
Complex is made of three sections: an office building, underground parking and public city garden with the pavilion. Construction took pace from 2006-2011. Beautiful combination of blue reflecting glass and white curves as the facade make this building really stand out from the surrounding architecture.

"The design for the Education Executive Agency and Tax Office building, accommodating 2,500 employees, reflects and caters for the separate identities of both user groups, whilst simultaneously creating synergy by means of shared use of secondary spaces – among which underground parking facilities, public gardens, a central hall and a pavilion for commercial functions.
The aerodynamic form of the building has been achieved as the result of extensive sun and wind studies. The terraces, rounded corners and façade design guarantee minimum disruption to the microclimate of the surrounding urban green space, known as the ‘Sterrenbos’, whilst integrating sun shading, wind regulation, daylight penetration and construction in one concept, with the result that both material and energy use are minimised."
