  3. Crematorium, Berlin ‘People die and they are not happy’ – architecture can’t change that. A place of rest, a space for silence: that is something it still manages to provide.

  4. A Piazza Coperta, a place in the middle of this cenotaph, where many can assemble and yet the individual is shielded. In this room, the columns with their capitals of light establish the only reference: a cosmological contrast between populated stacks of clay and the sun with its light. Crematorium, Berlin

  5. Crematorium, Berlin The ceremonial halls – two for 50, one for 250 people – are simply boxes of split stone, set open-fronted into a second, slat-steered casing of glass:

  6. The Kunstmuseum Bonn is not only renowned for its collection, but due to its exceptional architecture. The building began with the ambitious concept of “flowing” space. It highlights the visual and material connecting axis, as well as with reference to the flow of light, for optimally presenting art in all of its facets, from the Classical Modern to the varieties of the most recent art. Kunstmuseum, Bonn

  7. Kunstmuseum, Bonn As a component of the Bonn Museum Mile the architecture is convincing both from the outside and from the inside due to its openness and its flow of light.

  8. Kunstmuseum, Bonn The Kunstmuseum Bonn opens up to visitors who may enter it from any of three different entrances. From the Foyer they are then led via a spectacular stairs, which opens up the darkened entry area, through the light, into a generous upper floor of the Museum.

  9. Kunstmuseum, Bonn An open glass wall on the ground floor makes possible the attractive interplay between inside and outside.

  10. Kunstmuseum, Bonn The rooms on the upper floor have natural light flooding in from the outside that stages the art itself in a sparkling manner. The stairs both separate and connect the collections and the temporary exhibition spaces, which are designed in keeping with the principle of opening views through the building so characteristic of the museum.

  11. Kunstmuseum, Bonn Connected to the main building by a sweeping roof (in the shape of a sail) is a narrow building with the same sandstone façade. It shields the actual museum from the noise of the busy B9 Federal Highway, and houses the administration as well as the rooms for museum education, where numerous activities are launched.
