A Transparent EU

Don't get too excited its just a building we are talking about.

A design has been selected for a new meeting space for the European Union in Brussels. The building will supplement the adjacent 1927 Palace Complex, designed by architect Michel Polak, which now serves as EU Council headquarters.

What is so special about this building?

Phillippe Samyn describes the box-like building as a "lantern," due to its glowing, glass-box appearance, created by facade layers of both translucent and transparent glass.

Not that exciting is it. Now if they were talking about a transparent accounting process, or transparency in lobbying, now that would be something to write home about.
