I always remember this building from the first moment I saw it when I was a child, and it has taken a lot of my attention, which of course could not miss to portray and talk about this important architectural icon of the city and the country, which at some point was the meaning of progress in a thriving country economically speaking.

When I visit and know these architectural works, besides the fact of taking some pictures, I recognize the value and contribution it has on the history of my country, where for many years it was at the forefront of architecture throughout America, and although it is already an old tower, it still has validity for the knowledge of all, as well as a treasure well appreciated for photography.

Siempre recuerdo este edificio desde el primer momento que lo vi cuando era niño, y ha tomado mucho mi atención, que por supuesto no podía faltar retratar y hablar sobre este importante icono arquitectónico de la ciudad y el país, que en algún fue significado de progreso en un país pujante económicamente hablando.

Cuando visito y conozco estas obras arquitectónicas, además del hecho de hacer algunas fotografías, reconozco el valor y contribución que tiene sobre la historia de mí país, donde por muchos años estuvo en la vanguardia de la arquitectura en toda América, y apesar de que se trata ya de una torre vieja, aun tiene vigencia para el conocimientos de todos, así como también un tesoro bien apreciado para la fotografía.

Where you can capture the geometric shapes, lines and forms of these structures, as well as try to understand the design of it, in order to have a reference that has a worldwide guideline. That is connected between progress and the advancement of modernity, which goes hand in hand with the formation of society.

Therefore, the tower La Previsora, is part of the Venezuelan culture, for all its history and art, which somehow continues to influence the future of our civilization, which will be part of the studies of those people related to this area such as architecture and engineering, also as the beautification and planning of a city, which still aspires to grow and improve over time.

The Venezuelan capital of Caracas is undeniably a magnificent hub of iconic architecture. And the La Previsora Tower is one of its shining beacons. I love its Brutalist-inspired design giving the modern skyscraper an impressive minimalistic appeal. Definitely a status symbol of your country's continuing progress and development! 😊
