Sculpting the Sky: Santiago Calatrava ☁️

Spanish architect, engineer, and sculptor known for his futuristic, nature-inspired designs that blur the lines between art and structure. His work often mimics natural forms — wings, trees, and bones — combining engineering precision with expressive movement.

Calatrava is behind iconic structures like the Turning Torso in Sweden, the City of Arts and Sciences in Valencia, and the Oculus at the World Trade Center in NYC.

His signature style? White, sweeping forms, dynamic curves, and a fusion of architecture and sculpture.

Love architecture that moves and breathes like a living organism? Calatrava’s world is a must-see.
