Museum Brandhorst
Sauerbruch Hutton · Munich, Germany · 2009
Sauerbruch Hutton covered the museum with a layered field of colored ceramic rods. The changing facade gives a relatively simple building volume a lively surface, while the galleries inside provide controlled daylight and a quieter setting for modern and contemporary art. Visiting: The museum is ticketed; the multicoloured ceramic-rod facade is best seen from Theresienstraße.
