| @dinaaczib | Bodegón de Sevilla - A beautiful abandoned building | Venezuela |
The truth is that I could not determine the architectural style of this building, but it is evident that it is inspired by the architecture of the city of Seville. It strikes me that the structure is not uniform in form, in fact, I could not decipher the intention of the architect, it seems a building that was made in an improvised way as the years passed, by the way, according to a plaque made in cement, this building was built in 1878, so now it has more than 100 years of having been built.

| @indipnash91 | Getting to know places that stand the test of time [eng/spa] | Cuba |
Of the whole place, what I liked the most was its spiral wall. The railing is metallic with a silvery sheen. Of the rest of the elements, the wood stands out, which, as I always say, is one of my favorite elements in interior design. The steps of the stairs are protected with wood. The most interesting thing, in my opinion, is that on the other side there is a piece that imitates a huge bookcase, and even has the spines of books carved in wood. I thought this decorative element was the coolest thing about the whole place.

| @soyunasantacruz | Discovering the characteristics and architecture of the C.C Metropolis | Venezuela |
Among the places we visited was the Metropolis shopping center in Valencia, Carabobo state, Venezuela. This state has developed in the last decade creating parks, cafes and places focused on tourism and recreation. Valencia has many shopping malls, some new and others old like this one I present today, years ago I visited it with my parents but it was so long ago that I do not remember it and my brother did not know it, he loves these places.

I'm visiting Berlin this weekend, a place of wonderful architecture. What has been preventing me from posting to this community is the single source policy - as a non-architect, I tend to rely on multiple sources and opinions. Are such posts acceptable?
Wow! Definitely lots of amazing architecture in Berlin. The single-source community rule is only required in case consulted information such as Architect or Designer of work, vital people, history, dates, context, style, technicalities, etc. are mentioned in your A+D content.
However, you don't need to rely on multiple sources because we highly prioritize and want to know your PERSONAL STORIES (actual experiences, senses, interactions, encounters, descriptions, impressions, observations, reactions, analyses, reviews, critiques, opinions, feelings, and emotions) about your featured building or space. That's what matters. Hope that helps dear @godfish. 😀
It indeed did. I will also publish a São Paulo downtown post soon, and now I feel safe to do so within this community :)
Wonderful! We look forward to experiencing your awesome A+D personal stories. Feel free to ask questions along the way and we'll be more than happy to guide you. Cheers! 😀
