The Guggenheim Bilbao (Frank Gehry, Basque Country, Spain, 1997) The Guggenheim Bilbao museum overlooks the Nervión River, and it was created from glass, limestone, and Titanium. Its curvaceous design resembles a bunch of flowers growing by the river. The effect which the museum had on the development of its surrounding area was massive. The industrial port city of Bilbao generally witnessed what is known as the “Bilbao Effect”—a term used now to describe the influence of commissioning a “starchitect” to design a world-class cultural facility on revitalizing the economic state of a city. #info #EverythingsInfo
