A dutch design practice has been given the opportunity to create one of the most visually stunning buildings ever to be built. The building will be a part of the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen and will feature a few big design elements that separate it from the rest.
The building, which will be known as the 'Collection Building,' will be finished and put up completely by 2017 but the concept is already in and it looks stunning. The entire building will be about 15,000 square meters and will feature a host of interesting perks. There will be a rooftop sculpture garden, public and private exhibition halls and a giant, disco ball-like exterior.
For those who find the image too distracting, the glare from the giant building will also be able to be controlled.
