The Suite Vollard is an apartment building located in Curitiba, Brazil. The building is unique in that it has 11 floors that rotate independently.
Each unit occupies 1 floor and has a control panel for the speed and direction of the rotation.
So named by architects Bruno De Franco and Sergio Silka in honor of Pablo Picasso.
The (original) Suite Vollard is a series of 100 engravings published by Picasso in 1937. No idea why they just didn’t call the building “Condominios do Picasso”.
