Da Vinci code

I have to say that i am very bad reading. In Fact i hate read, especially these big books that we had to read in school. But some months ago a read i famous book, Da vinci code. That novel has a lot of critics , for good and bad reasons. I enjoy the book very much. I dont believe in god and all the time believe in some things that the book said, so for me was very interesting. Maybe for the catholics people is aggresive and fiction, but for the people that not believe in god and is not catholic , that book represent the other version of the history, the version that me and alot of people in the world maybe believe. Besides the story of the book, the way that Dan Brown wrote the book is very good, with small chapters sometimes and a story based in the reality, the fun and misterious story is better all the time.

The best architect

Is very difficult for me to choose the best architect. For me exist a best architect for each part of the history or each topic of design. Probably one of the best architects for me is Santiago Calatrava. I think this architect use his talent and knowledge of the structures in the design of the buildings. Like Gaudi, Calatrava made diferents forms and structures imposible to think that these can be made in the reality. But he can, and today most of the omportant building in the world that tlak about beautiful structures were made by Santiago Calatrava. That effort is a step for the new technology in materials and forms to make buildings.

the most important buildings of Calatrava are: Tenerife Opera house, a magnificant building with a curve in the roof. the Science museum of Valencia, building that show all his structure. Teh Athens olimpics sport complex, a complete Master plan for the Olimpics games in 2004 was made by Calatrava. The " woman bridge" in Puerto madero, Buenos aires is a famous example of the excelent design of this architect too, adding functionality to the design.
