Slovak Radio Building: The Inverted Pyramid

Some call it ugly. Others defend it for its architectural features. Whichever faction you side with, you can’t deny that it is an exceptional building.

The Slovak Radio Building, standing in Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia, was constructed in the shape of an inverted pyramid. It stands 80 meters tall, if you measure it to the tip of the antenna on its roof. Since 1983, the year the building was completed, it has housed the headquarters of Slovakia’s national public-service radio, Slovenský rozhlas, or Slovak Radio.
