Hamburg is building a new concert hall – the „Elbphilharmonie“
designed by Star architects Herzog & de Meuron
A Landmark project in one of the largest urban building sites in europe.
The Elbphilharmonie is also a beacon project under the umbrella of future-adaptive urban
development.
It incorporates much higher green and sustainability standards.It is built on top of an
already existing warehouse,which was gutted and reinforced.
What fascinates me as a photographer in particular is the changing interaction between the
building and its surroundings.
