Everyday Icons / Hiding In Plain Sight (Abu Dhabi)

No.0024 - Department of Finance, Corniche Road

A slightly more modern and more imposing sister of my previous post. The Department of Finance building on the Corniche is a mid-rise glass tower clad with an intricate series of vertical fins which create an interesting play of light and shadow across the facade. It’s also still in use!

I couldn’t find anything online regarding its construction date or the architects responsible.
