项目概况:

the jewish museum berlin designed by deconstructionist architect daniel libeskind covers an area of 3000m2 and adjoins berlin fifth avenue and 92 street; the multilateral zigzag shape completely displaying the two millennia of german jewish history and holocaust and persecution of german nazis has been the landmark of berlin. the inspiration of "between the lines" was taken from the final act of arnold schoenberg’s unfinished opera, moses und aron; the dots of jewish historical sites marked out in the map were connected by lines and developed into the appearance of the building. one empty central axis slicing linearly through the entire building broke the baroque architecture and went through the existing building and the new wing. an irregular matrix of windows cuts in all orientations across the building’s facade. a thin layer of zinc coats the building’s exterior, which forms the irregular shapes; lights through the gaps in the buildings come into and cut all the lines, surface and space, meaning the suffering life of jews. the three underground axes of "holocaust", "exile" and "continuity" go through the six "void" exhibitions and arrive at "holocaust tower" and "garden of exile". the empty interior exhibitions don’t have any decoration but the gaps of windows and the obscure lights. the zigzag tunnels, the serious tone and lights give people the spiritual shock. the garden of exile consists of 49 concrete pillars, creating a disjointed and uncomfortable experience, each with a living tree at the top, representing hope for the future.
