Kunsthaus Zürich's new extension building, designed by David Chipperfield Architects, was inaugurated on October 9, 2021. The repeating vertical fins on the museum's facade were created from local Jurassic limestone. The nightly illumination is by Swiss artist Pipilotti Rist. #zurich #architecture #photography #davidchipperfield #mastoart
The entrance hall spans the full length of the building, creating a large public space at its very center. The museum shop, café and event halls can be found here. The main materials used are exposed concrete, marble, wood and brass. #zurich #architecture

The exhibition spaces are located on the 2nd and 3rd floor. Many of them use natural daylight, be it through windows or skylights.
