Details
A new building designed to showcase weather and climate research at the German Weather Service to the public, featuring an exhibition space.
The design, titled “The Graph,” symbolizes the ups and downs in the records of the world’s oldest mountain weather station.
The facade is printed with so-called “warming stripes”—blue stripes for cold years, red stripes for warm years—symbolizing climate change from the start of record-keeping in 1781 to the present day. The interior is used for an exhibition on weather and climate research by the German Weather Service.
