The Sony Center in Berlin, designed by Helmut Jahn, features a striking glass canopy that resembles a circus tent, creating a dynamic and light-filled central plaza. Its modern architecture integrates seamlessly with the surrounding historical structures, blending futuristic elements with Berlin's rich urban fabric. Deutsche Bahn (German Railway) building is in the background. Here are 2 images.

Quite mesmerizing to gaze at. How often do the colors shift from red to blue? Are there hues in between?

Good question. If I remember right, it cycled thru 4 colors every few minutes but I did hear that it can be programmed to choose from 16 million colors (design for 16-bit RAW images, I suppose)

That's so cool Murali. I hadn't heard of this before, it's quite captivating.

Reminds me of looking in inside some train stations or urban areas with circular design ceilings, you can find some amazing patterns sometimes just by looking up ! I love this
