"Neues Museum" Berlin







British architect David Chipperfield recently gave an interview with Crane.tv discussing his architectural philosophy and affinity for the German culture. He expands on his approach to architecture and touches on his work for the completed reconstruction of the Neues Museum in Berlin.  Turner Contemporary – a visual arts venue in Margate, England, America’s Cup Building in Valencia, Spain, and the Central Public Library in Des Moines, Iowa.

Called the James Simon Gallery, the building will 
serve as a grand entrance to the cluster of cultural buildings, set on an island 
in the river Spree.

BMCE headquarters by Foster + Partners

Saw this on another blog, think it's a great example of traditional concept's fused with modern style and construction methods. In fact, I'm quite surprised of the sculptural quality as much of fosters + partners work revolves around technological and design driven schemes. Anyhow's it's rather beautiful I think; enjoy.
