Nach Karl Friedrich Schinkels Entwürfen wurde in Glienicke "antik gebaut". Schloss, Casino, die Große und die Kleine Neugierde - alles klar gegliedert und ausgewogen proportioniert, jene "heiter-festliche Würde" ausstrahlend, die schon Goethe und Winckelmann bewunderten.

It's easy to forget how revolutionary the Richard Rogers / Renzo Piano Centre George Pompidou was at the time of it's completion in 1977 but it was one of the first Hi-tech buildings. It's starting to look like it needs another coat of paint now.
From Wikipedia : "The Centre was designed by the Italian architect Renzo Piano, the British architect couple Richard Rogers and Su Rogers, Gianfranco Franchini, the British structural engineer Edmund Happold (who would later found Buro Happold), and Irish structural engineer Peter Rice. The project was awarded to this team in an architectural design competition, whose results were announced in 1971. Reporting on Rogers' winning the Pritzker Prize in 2007, The New York Times noted that the design of the Centre "turned the architecture world upside down" and that "Mr. Rogers earned a reputation as a high-tech iconoclast with the completion of the 1977 Pompidou Centre, with its exposed skeleton of brightly colored tubes for mechanical systems. The Pritzker jury said the Pompidou “revolutionized museums, transforming what had once been elite monuments into popular places of social and cultural exchange, woven into the heart of the city.”

The underside of the glass pavilion is one of my favourite bits of the project. The abstract design of steel structure floating within the floor supports the entrance level area in front of the lift. The asymmetrical steel plates, lights and air handling fixtures read more like an art installation. Daylight from this area and the sunken courtyard at the other end of this large space provides a bright generous space.
