The Bauhaus-Archiv construction site becomes more interesting day by day. First contours of the future exhibition spaces are already visible as is the tower which will serve as the new museum’s entrance. It will be exciting to see how the new architecture harmonizes with the existing. The photographic documentation will follow the construction’s progress with regular updates until the museum reopens.
