It’s Windows Alright

But are these awnings? Shutters? Dormers? Is it a roof? Or a facade?

It is the Carl-Bosch-Museum in Heidelberg. Carl Bosch was a German engineer, and chemist, and a Nobel Prize laureate. The technical museum is situated behind the Heidelberg Castle with quiet a curious mixture of exhibits. Some are from his private life, exhibits from his time working with high pressure apparatus are displayed on the outside, mainly because of their size, and then there is the modern building featured here which houses a wonderful collection of technical experiments, designed for children but equally fascinating for adults.

The building does justice to this innovate approach.
