Munich-Brussels 20-25 March 2010

Munich 20-21 March 2010
Found some time to check out Coop Himmeblau's BMW Welt (take the U3 bahn to the Olympiazentrum Station) when i was in Munich for a stopover enroute Brussels for a 3-day conference.

Um i think the pictures of the BMW Welt can so do all the talking.



Uh-huh.








Stunt guy going up the stairs...


Stunt guy going down again...
well he kinda did this loop several times.


Mine cannot move one lah...


Matt gun-metal silver. I like.




Staircase peeled away from bridge. I like too.


Even Mr Dog wants to cross over.


View of BMW Welt from the BMW Museum Cafe. I like how the bridge ribbons through the building interior, pierces through the facade and continues across the road to the BMW Museum, complete with what looks like twists and turns in a ribbon seemingly by peeling the cladding away from the structure at parts.






That thing next to the headlight IS the door handle.
