Design Museum, London

Opening this week at the Design Museum in London is an exhibition of work by leading British architect David Chipperfield entitled ‘Form Matters’.

David Chipperfield is internationally renowned for producing subtle and sophisticated buildings with an acute sensitivity for materials and a powerful awareness of their environment.  This major exhibition celebrates his work for the first time in the UK and spans his entire career to date, examining a range of key projects through a variety of models, sketches, drawings, photographs and film. 

These include such acclaimed projects as the River and Rowing Museum in Henley-on-Thames, and the Museum of Modern Literature in Marbach, Germany, winner of the RIBA Stirling Prize for Architecture 2007. The exhibition also illustrates important public commissions including the reconstruction of the Neues Museum in Berlin, and The Hepworth Wakefield gallery.
