Slideshow: Kolumba by Peter Zumthor - Cologne, Germany

The Kolumba museum in Cologne, Germany was high on my list of places to visit and it turned out to be a spectacular experience. Although not all of the images are fantastic do to some low lighting conditions and no tripod, you should get an overall sense of the elegant design by Peter Zumthor. This was definitely one of the best pieces of architecture I have visited on my travels. Truly stunning both in the design of the building, the materiality and tectonics as well as the art shown within - an interesting juxtaposition of historic and contemporary art.
