what is this space for ? it looks like an elevator well ? or what else ? and the pic is taken from the top ?

It is an atrium of the UC Innovation Center in Santiago. I think it is taken from the bottom, looking up. It is the second image on this page:

thank you Strange.

this glass atrium allows for everyone inside to see across other floors and into other offices, promoting a feeling of openness.

this pic is taken from the bottom which the figure 5 is beyond 3(floor). it looks like photographer stands on the bottom which has the figures to take this pic ?

what is behind the glass ? it doesn't look like other offices .

how does this building look like ?

The exterior is the first picture on the page I linked (wacky, isn't it!)

 

I assume the glass walls of the atrium are the office walls (I have never been there).

Scroll down and just after the sketches click on the "VER LA PLANIMETRIA DEL CENTRO DE INNOVACION UC" and you will see all plans sections elevations of the building.
