银行在布宜诺斯艾利斯两条主要用作步行街道的交叉口,街道狭窄,无法从远处观望建筑物。立面的特征,是用有遮阳作用的、像扇骨一样的一片片钢筋混凝土柱子,组成复杂的图案。这些组合柱,能表现出建筑物的尺度,而且受力很好,可以避免在银行大厅里再设柱子。从街道望去,片片扁柱使人无法窥清银行内部的面貌,只是在街道转角处,留出一个大的缺角,突出了银行的入口,也给街道空间带来变化。银行建造这座新楼的目的,是要把1500名雇员和他们所从事的一切银行业务,都集中起来。走进银行,呈现在眼前的是一个高大宽敞的大厅,空间流通连续。它的上面三层楼板,是悬挂式结构,从屋顶悬下,仿佛漂浮在上空;下面两层楼板则由悬挑构件支承。垂直交通围绕着电梯井布置,梯井同时起承重构件的作用。一层层楼板,用天 The two intersections of Buenos Aires, which are mainly used as pedestrian streets, are narrow and cannot be seen from a distance.
