construcción con acero corten (hierro viejo)


Explanation:
En cuanto he leido lo de "hierro rojo" y viendo la definición del link puesto por Mike, enseguida me ha venido a la cabeza la impresionante fachada del Palacio Euskalduna de Bilbao.
No estoy seguro de si es el mismo material; pero por la definición de acero protegido por una capa de óxido rojo, juraría que es el mismo.
