          Next, i will give you the information about this building. Let's see..

          This building was built by Santiago Calatrava. He was one of the genius architect in the world. He was born on 28th July 1951. He has created many unique buildings in several cities, such as Paris, New York, Zurich, and Valencia. Because of his genius in constructing a building, he became one of the elite architects in the world. 
          
         Next, we will talk about the design..
The canopy of this school is really unique, it's like the wings's of the flying bird. The subtlest and most exciting of Calatrava's roof at Wohlen is in the library.

This's the library

          Here, a concrete shell, in a symmetrical shallow curve, is supported on a single, central, 4-meter steel column. This column carries the weight of the whole cantilevered roof, and also acts as a central, internal drainpipe. As a library ceiling, the mirrored curve of the concrete shell here suggests an open book, but in section it is also suggestive of other winged forms by Calatrava.
