Description
The Dancing House, or Fred and Ginger, is the nickname given to the Nationale-Nederlanden building on the waterfront of the River Vltava in Prague, Czech Republic. It was designed by the Croatian-Czech architect Vlado MiluniÃâ¡ in cooperation with Canadian-American architect Frank Gehry on a vacant riverfront plot. Building gained its name thanks to the towers that resemble famous figures of dancers, Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire. A stone tower represents dancer and a glass tower his female partner. At the top of the tower symbolizing the dancer there is a dome with the construction of metal tubes coated with stainless steel mesh-work. The dome is shrouded in imaginary hair and symbolizes the head of jellyfish.
