Bunshaft National Commercial Bank "...In the center, three columns allowed openings and offices to be rotated to any side. The dramatic 100-foot-wide fa�ade openings were designed to provide daylight without direct sunshine. Light filters into the three courtyards through these openings, reaching the inhabited spaces only indirectly. The shaded cavity of the building reduces air temperatures slightly before cooling is completed by air-conditioning machinery. Above the level of the first office floor, warm air is drawn up the building's small triangular core and vented in the center of the roof. The office areas are protected from the sun's glare by gray glazing, and the glass-walled executive offices on the top floor are shielded by a pierced wall covering a 10-foot recess behind the building's outer surface; these recessed windows are akin to the shuttered of screened balconies of traditional Saudi architecture. A computerized building management system adjusts the climate-control machinery as external thermal conditions change." Name : Aamer Zubair Abdulatief

Bank of London, Buenos Aires In a corner of the central port city, the product of a restricted competition organized in 1959, stands the Bank of London building, now Banco Hipotecario Nacional. Is notable for the plastic treatment of their facades, consisting of large pieces of concrete seen that seem to drip from the roof onto the street, acting as a structural support and perforated screen, which articulates specific membrane generous and expansive interior space with the narrow urban space, materializing a particular intention of continuity between the two areas. This continuity was one of the premises of the proposal by Testa, with the clear intention to penetrate the narrow downtown streets inside the building, forming a sort of roofed plaza, In his own words. The public entrance is through the corner, receding doors and putting together a space between the interior and exterior, which is virtually limited by a high concrete screen hanging on the corner.
