The Julio Barreno Azahar School in Cadiz, Spain has literally stolen the limelight. Get out those fashionable sunnies you love wearing because these walls have been designed with a vibrant fluorescent green color that will have your eyes needing to adjust to the walls with every step.

However, despite the bright green walls that are bursting with vim and vigour, what makes the Julio Barreno Azahar School an architectural wonder is how the floors and ceilings have been manipulated to promote quality and fluidity from beginning to end.
