In between central Europe and the Adriatic Sea Zagreb is the capital of Croatia and concentrates the bulk of the industry, scientific institutions, administrative national institutions and the various government ministries. The city is a touristic destination, as well as a tourist corridor from central Europe to Western Europe, with important hubs such as railway, road and air connections, with major European cities. For all these reasons Zagreb deserves to be the inspiration for this piece with character, strength and irreverence, based on special details of the city such as colours and modern architecture.
