The Michelin Guide's review
Inaugurated in 2008, this skyscraper is a work by the Japanese agency Tange Associates. At 203m tall, it is the second highest building dedicated to education, behind Mosco University. Most notably, it houses a fashion school. Its very peculiar design, covered with white aluminium and blue glass calls to mind a cocoon.
