I wonder if the Rolex Learning Centre should be blessed considering how holey it is (hardy-har-har). Tasteless jokes aside, it is a pretty impressive piece of architecture.
Designed by Japanese firm SANAA, the Rolex Learning Centre is located in Lausanne, Switzerland. Paying respect to its surroundings, the building is a one-level, minimalist open concept that endeavors to be "an intimate public space," according to the designers.
