Hi everybody. My new entry:

Metropolitan Cathedral of Barquisimeto

PicsArt_11-19-09.27.21.jpg

Barquisimeto, Lara, Venezuela

This unconventional cathedral is shaped like a hyperbolic paraboloid, resembling a 4-petalled upside-down flower. Its ceiling is made up of transparent acrylic panels supported by a network of nerves made of post-tensioned steel cables covered with concrete, which gives it excellent lighting.
