I have seen a lot of Zumthor's architecture while studying in Lausanne (CH) and I got the same feeling in each of his construction: "no little error". Every thing looks so perfect. Here again, we can feel the tactile and sensory qualities of the space and materials, and the conspicuousness for every detail. I am agreeing with Tom, more pictures please! Clau­dia,

His work is the absolute opposite of Aleppo's architecture. Syria is about careless building with a ornate decoration glued to it, Z is minimalistic perfection.

I've seen some details inside, photographed by Karin, and it's amazing how the joints always meet (or don't meet). There seemed to always be a "space in-between" between the floor/wall and wall/ceiling. Wow, the build­ing looks fan­tas­tic.
