Thanks for the comments guys i should have added it was completed in 1959 i'm quite amazed how these structures are timeless and modern regardless of era. The dome shell itself tapers from its feet in thickness from 60cm to 10cm at the crown. I believe it presented an engineering challenge at the time.

great work again - I love this kind of architecture and thought about Nervi first and, as so often with your contributions, I again hadn't heard of this building so far.
I googled something and found this Australian fun name for this building "The Martian Embassy"
