Where most of the Palau de les Arts wears white trencadís, a few surfaces — the exterior of its restaurant, the walls of the main hall — are clad in a cobalt blue version of the same broken ceramic, a glaze Calatrava borrowed from the domes of Valencia's churches. Here that blue field becomes a vertical pattern of tapered uprights, each one narrowing top and bottom like a spindle, set behind a row of pale brise-soleil slats that cross the frame on a sharp diagonal. The two systems — mosaic and louver, blue and white — sit in different planes but read, at this distance, as a single woven surface. It's a rare moment of color in a building defined almost everywhere else by white concrete and shadow.
