Art at street level
The trade union council building, small St Barbara Church and Sheraton tower show different scales within one central district. The transition to the maritime academy brings the seafront into view. Teaching buildings and the hotel remain exterior architecture stops without assumed indoor admission
View Fantasy from different sides
The mosaic composition is known for its fluid form and colourful surface. Study it in parts: silhouette, changes in volume and tile pattern. Its resemblance to a sea creature explains the popular Octopus name, but the visit need not rely on one angle. Rotation beside Ardagani offers a contrasting final stop
