The monolithic Porsche Museum in Porscheplatz Stuttgart rises dynamically into the air as the building below folds in precise typography. The visitor enters underneath the looming display program, with a carefully conceived procession through the complex though not traditional. The grand building points toward the highway with a large display window and a shimmering ceiling underneath.
It competes with Stuttgart’s Mercedes museum on innovative and dynamic presentation. Architect Delugan Meissl presents a design that is less fluid than his other projects, but complex in connections, function and aesthetic.
The cost went from 60 million to 100 million euros. It opened in January 2009.
