thanks to its light-filled interiors: the extension of the Kunsthaus Zürich, conceived by British architect David Chipperfield.
The geometric building with its clean lines opens up entirely new possibilities for the Kunsthaus Zürich — while simultaneously making it the largest art museum in Switzerland.
"Light is central to the way we perceive art," says the award-winning architect David Chipperfield. "It matters for the works on display. And it matters for us as an audience. Light profoundly influences the relationship between ourselves, a work of art, and the space we inhabit."
