A strange symbiosis of uses and styles
Every time I visit my family in Madrid I enjoy some enviable views of the Madrid "skyline" from my sister's house. Over the past few years, I've followed the constant evolution of my city. One day I decided to go with my camera and see those incredible buildings for real, standing out on the horizon from far away.
From close up, the image is tremendous, it is a futurist image. I chose a lonely day to go, which made the impression even stranger.
The buildings look like dominos waiting for the magical touch of fingers to start falling down in a chain reaction. The weird thing is the incredible mix of the area. You look on one side and the buildings of the working-class neighborhood contrast a lot with the "mega-towers" of exquisite design. The business and hotel complex are flanked with some lovely gardens of "zen" design, making the place a little more human.
