This is the former Casa Casla. The idea of this building came from Lanoire Courrian. The large square extension with a glass wall makes the building perfect for public cultural functions. The building was therefore purpose-built as an architecture centre and has served as a cultural hotspot.

This is the former Casa Casla. The idea of this building came from Lanoire Courrian. The large square extension with a glass wall makes the building perfect for public cultural functions. The building was therefore purpose-built as an architecture centre and has served as a cultural hotspot.
The cool thing about this building is that you can stand on top of it, walk around it or simply view it from a distance. Walk on up, from here you have a great view of a small harbour with very nice angles. On the right, you can see a big blue mural. I have lived in Almere for years and was there when this one was painted. Everyone thought it was a commission from the municipality, but he had secretly built the scaffolding and just started painting. When the municipality wanted to clean it up everyone came to protest and, as you can see, it's still there!
Looking further around you also see Silverline, Side by Side and The Wave. What a great view!
