This green and white building resembles the shape of a 4×4×4 Rubik’s Cube with the top two layers twisted. It overlooks a vineyard, and acts, among other things, as an art gallery and wine-tasting room for the d’Arenberg vineyards, where the five-story building is located.

The idea for this unusual building came from d’Arenberg’s Chief Winemaker, Chester Osborn. He was inspired by the “puzzles of winemaking.” Construction began in 2014 and the tempered glass building was completed in 2017.
