Parliament House, Government building in Valletta, Malta
Parliament House features two massive stone blocks elevated on columns, with facades sculpted to filter natural light into the interior spaces.
The Parliament building, inaugurated in 2015, replaced previous parliamentary chambers located in the Grandmaster's Palace's Tapestry Room and Armory.
The ground floor functions as an exhibition space with multimedia installations, connecting the building to the city's entrance area.
The structure integrates 600 square meters of photovoltaic panels and 40 geothermal boreholes for efficient heating and cooling systems.
Each stone block of the facade received precise shaping through numerical control technology to create patterns resembling natural erosion.
