Cubo Negro, Modern office building in Chuao, Venezuela
The Centro Banaven, also known as Cubo Negro, stands as a thirteen-story structure covered entirely in black glass panels and aluminum framing.
Architects Philip Johnson and John Burgee designed this building between 1974 and 1978, incorporating geometric shapes and modern architectural principles.
The interior features a monumental installation by Jesus Soto consisting of 2,480 cobalt blue aluminum tubes suspended from the ceiling.
The building houses numerous offices, financial institutions, and law firms, with restaurants and fast food establishments on the lower levels.
The structure follows a square plan with an internal diagonal pointing toward La Carlota airport, creating distinct floor layouts connected by four circulation systems.
