The exterior curves were originally intended to be clad in limestone but as budgets tightened, the cladding was changed to stainless steel with a matte finish which is now the hall's identity. The thin metal panels allowed for more curvature and could be structurally unattached from the ground. The Founder’s Room and Children’s Amphitheater were initially designed with polished mirror-like panels but it was changed due to glare caused by sunlight reflected on the surfaces.

@garviEl legado de la Ingeniería Romana del siglo I , en Medina Sidonia, Cádiz, Andalucía ./ The legacy of 1st century Roman Engineering, in Medina Sidonia, Cadiz, Andalusia

Salted fish, fabrics, sherry and Malaga wines were a favourite with the Romans. Many of the merchants who travelled between distant lands took advantage of this and visited Medina as it was an urban centre well known for its many products in vogue at the time. Such as artists and art workshops. The pottery of the area was highly valued, the busts and sculptures of the master craftsmen, the embroidery and jewellery. Making Medina a great place of interest. That is why in a small village of not many inhabitants we can find a great historical legacy.

The facade was designed in 1822 by the French Próspero Catelin and Pedro Benoit, its inspiration came from the French Bourbon palace and although it looks more like a Greek temple than a cathedral, it is thanks to its symmetry and sublimity typical of the neoclassical style that calls so much the Attention, you can also see many references to religion, such as the 12 pillars on the façade, which represent the 12 apostles who accompanied and then preached the word of Christ.
