Simple Abstract 186

Detail shot of the Imperial War Museum North in Manchester, England.

 

The building was erected in 2001. The architect, Daniel Libeskind, wanted visitors to feel the unsettling nature of war. The building is intentionally disconcerting in the way that it looks and feels, both inside and out, the idea being that war and conflict should, in a perfect world, be nevermore.

 

The architect also designed the Jewish Museum in Berlin.
