Zaha Hadid wins Vilnius Guggenheim
12 Apr 2008 - 9:45 AM - by Johnnyhoong

Zaha Hadid has won the competition to design the new Guggenheim-Hermitage Museum in Vilnius, Lithuania, beating Daniel Libeskind and Massimiliano Fuksas.

The New York-based Guggenheim Foundation will share exhibition space with the Russian Hermitage Museum at the site, which is expected to attract up to 400,000 visitors a year, and will focus on exhibitions of new media art.

A joint team will now complete a feasibility study for the Hadid scheme this summer, with the institution due to open in 2011, two years before the Guggenheim’s Abu Dhabi museum.

NTBM Archive02

It's time for another selection of dusted but interesting threads.
Here is another NTBM (Not to be missed) Archive.

The first is a good discussion on the design of a tomb for mother by Sunilarch. For those of you in search of architectural expressions in foreign languages, check out and add to the PPB² Lexicon initiated by Michel. Rendering with Photoshop is explained by Marcday using his Worncall technique. You might want to do a search to find more of his images on the forum. Another demonstration of PPB²'s peer reviewing is this discussion on arrestme's kitchen design. Last is an impressive 3rd semester project of a meditation centre in Tel Aviv by Bakbek.
