Everyday Icons / Hiding In Plain Sight (Abu Dhabi)
No.0026 - Emirates Post - Hamdan Post Office, Khalifa Street, Abu Dhabi
Standing among giants, this little building holds its own alongside its more contemporary neighbors - Le Royal Meridien Hotel and the ADNOC Distribution Headquarters.
Its simple use of materials and elegantly proportioned form and structure contrasts nicely against the multi-storey glass and concrete towers that neighbour it.
Designer and date of construction unknown.
