Kingdom Centre, Riyadh

It's a typical early June day in the Saudi Arabia capital. Dust and humidity, dense air covers the city. Kingdom Centre is a giant shadow very far away, but as the cab moves towards the skyscraper, it becomes cristalline and soft. Shopping malls colored neons start to shine as the sunset approaches. Kingdome Centre reveals its unusual geometries, tough angles and imaginative surfaces. Riyadh is imponent, friendly and calm. Its peaceful soul just asks to be discovered.
