Christ & Gantenbein’s Kunstmuseum Basel Photographed by Laurian Ghinitiou

In another photoset from his latest Switzerland trip, photographer Laurian Ghinitiou takes us inside Christ & Gantenbein’s recently-opened addition to the Kunstmuseum Basel. The design, winner in an international competition in 2009, sought to create a “contemporary brother” to the original museum, opening up to the street through its angled form. The monochromatic brick facade also responds to its context and historic neighbor, while hiding a wraparound LED screen beneath to create a frieze with a technological twist.

Check out the full series of shots, after the break.
