Daniel Libeskind

This is Libeskinds design for the Dresden Military History Museum. It is currently under construction but I have chosen to put it in for the simple fact that it shows greatand dynamic use of the space between buildings.

This is the Jewish Museum in Berlin designed by Daniel Libeskind in 1993. I admire this building, and Libeskind's work in general infact, since he uses space so effectivly. With the Jewish Museum he makes particularly good use of space form and control of light to create a mood within the building; however what most links this building to my work I feel is his use of material is a massive factor in the space's sucsess. The starkness and harshness of the lines are counter balenced by the nutrality of the material and I feel that this could be a very important thing to remeber in my work, particularly with this project.
