It is a building of a wonderful design. I think that an inside plant is surely beautiful.

I like this a lot. Greenhouses are always intriguing. I like the manner in which the delicate details of this are captured, along with the wonderful dome. The flying buttress-like flanges (almost like radiator fins) are particularly well caught.
