Thanks for the photos. The students' residence entry looks graceful and different, with its non-symmetrical windows. I like it a lot. And the square is even prettier in the evening light. But I am confused: do you mean that they turned an old church into a fashion store?? In Spain, where religion is such a big thing?? How come? Did anything terrible happen there to make the place unholy?
I'm sorry, I don't mean to sound disrespectful.

Business are business, even for hcurch.I think there was a nunnery and they sold it because they moved somewhere else. But the most amazing thing is the high quality of the transformation. It's really respectful and beautiful. This glass and iron cube in the middle of the aisle avoids destroying the whole building. In my opinion, it is the most beautiful Zara building in the world.

Yes, it looks really beautiful, from what I see. Good for Zara!
