The door of Ernsting Warehouse featured above, is the creation of Santiago Calatrava, celebrated architect-structural designer. Based on the concept of opening of an eye, the various components of a door are put together in an unconventional, but efficient arrangement that gives an entirely new meaning to the simple act of opening a door.
Santiago Calatrava is a Spanish Architect who has, through his work, shown that engineering, art and architecture could be blended to create dramatic visual statements, whether it is buildings, bridges or elements like movable roof planes and doors.
