Let me introduce about one of the Frank O. Gahry's works, Hotel Marques de Riscal. The building is located in Elciego, in the Rioja region of Spain.
The hotel was built in 2006. As the name implies, the building is used as a hotel. The roof is called Gehry's wing. Do you know why the roof was colored like this? The area where Hotel Marques is located has been known for production of wine that good tastes, and the hotel also has winery. So, the roof was colored mixture of red and purple associated with a color of wine.
A view from the restaurant is very good. Not only people who stay at Hotel Marques but just visit the winery can enjoy lunch or dinner at the restaurant that is located the top floor of the hotel with enjoying their good tasting wine and the fantastic view. I want to visit and stay Hotel Marques sometime!
