Extension of Art Museum Zürich

Designed by David Chipperfield Architects Berlin, the art museum Zürich project is located opposite the existing museum in Zurich. The special feature of the new building is the central entrance hall, which connects a garden at the back with the square at the front. This hall allows visitors to experience art in a publicly accessible space outside of the general museum activities.
