An iconic landmark of deconstructivist architecture on the Vltava riverbank in Prague, designed by Vlado Milunić and Frank Gehry in 1996. The building evokes a dancing couple, affectionately nicknamed Ginger and Fred after Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. The dynamic contrast between the curved glass tower and the fluid concrete body stands in playful dialogue with surrounding baroque townhouses.
Highlights
- World-famous deconstructivist building designed by Frank Gehry
- Fluid architectural metaphor of dancing partners Ginger and Fred
- Scenic riverbank photo opportunity framed against Prague Castle
