    What do you think of architecture and which is the project that best represents you?

     

    I want to refer famous architect Le Corbusier "Architecture is an amazing game between light and volume..."

    Musuem of the Bank of Albania is one of the projects that best represent me. The concept of the museum is focused on Money, not only as physical transaction, role that it has played in different periods of economic development of the country but also in the way that this valuable asset is physically developed, starting from strange shape that it had in the ancient period to more sophisticated appearance in the upcoming social-economic stages up to digital transaction that are common nowadays.
