The information technologies are attractive but they can never compete with another form of human engineering: the architecture and decorative arts. As proof, the second most beautiful bookstore in the world by British newspaper The Guardian: El Ateneo Grand Splendid , the largest bookstore in South America located at 1860 Santa Fe Avenue in Buenos Aires (Argentina). Formerly a traditional movie theater, the magnificent building built in 1919 was arranged on three floors to provide over 2000 square meters for offering its catalog of books and music. With reading spaces in landscaped balconies and a coffee on the scene. The winners of the Guardian, the Grand Splendid is downgraded by Selexyz Dominicanen Boekhandel Maastricht (Holland).
It's enough to give a taste for reading ... a good book.
