Metro Hall
Metro Hall is a striking modernist office tower in downtown Toronto, recognizable for its curved glass facade, geometric lines, and the open public plaza at its base. Outside, you can work with the building's curved exterior and reflective glass to capture interesting abstracts or wide establishing shots; a wide-angle or tilt-shift lens works well for compressing the vertical lines without too much distortion. Step inside to find a dramatic atrium with soaring ceilings, exposed structural elements, and natural light filtering through the glass roof, making it a strong subject for interior architectural work. Midday light illuminates the atrium well, while blue hour outside brings out the warm interior glow against the darkening sky. The plaza is open and accessible, giving you plenty of room to back up and frame the full facade. (Toronto, Ontario, Canada)
