Here are some photographs of the VitraHaus by Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron, which has opened at the VitraCampus in Weil am Rhein, Germany. Designed to display the furniture brand’s Home Collection, the five-storey building consists of stacked volumes with pitched roofs covered in charcoal stucco. Each gabled end is glazed and cantilevers outwards up to five metres, creating the impression of a pile of houses.
Internally, spiral staircases connect the intersecting white-painted interiors. The VitraHaus project joins existing buildings on the Vitra campus by Frank Gehry and Tadao Ando.
