The monument was built to honor the metals industry and celebrate the atomic age 7. I picked this building, because when I first saw it, I thought that the building itself had a cool shape. I also wanted to pick something that sounded creative, so when I read "Atomium" I got interested. Since it said "Atomium", I wondered what it was made out of. I also saw that it was in Belgium, so I knew that is wasn't going to be ordinary, since it is a cool place. Turning Torso, Sweden 1. The architect of this building is Santiago Calatrava 2.
