Museum to the Stars

Sitting like a shuttle to Naboo, this design by Zaha Hadid Architects was picked to be the new Guggenheim Hermitage Museum in Vilnius, Lithuania. Zaha Hadid’s design flaunts conceptual characteristics like fluidity, velocity and lightness in a way that make the structure appear to be floating just above the urban landscape. The museums glossy, metallic surfaces are a clear indication of the future architectural language matching the cultural aims of the new Hermitage Guggenheim Vilnius Project.
