Peter Zumthor’s buildings always address the site where they are located. Although a free-standing building, Kunsthaus Bregenz integrates with the existing row of public buildings and interacts with its environment —water, light, and civic life.  \nFaçade  \nThe glass façade of the Kunsthaus confers the large architectural structure with a transparent lightness. It also acts as a weatherproof membrane and is an essential component of the building’slighting system. The 712 panels of etched glass, each 1.72 × 2.93 m, absorb the changing light of the sky, filter it, and guide it into the building’s various levels. The façade is self-supporting, structurally independent of the actual building — it envelops the free-standing concrete structure like a double casing: a steel truss framework accommodating both the glass panels on the outside and the thermal façade on the inside. There is a 90 cm gap between the exterior and interior glazing, a space equipped with four lift cabins enabling maintenance and servicing of the façade, as well as spotlights that illuminate the Kunsthaus at night.  \n02 KUB Kunsthaus Bregenz | Architecture  \nAdministration Building, KUB Café Bar, and KUB Square  \nOn the side facing the town, the Kunsthaus is complemented by an administration building of black pigmented concrete, which was conceived as an autonomous structure. This smaller building creates a transition to the lower buildings of the oldtown and accommodates all the Kunsthaus’ancillary facilities, so that the latter can be exclusively reserved for the presentation of exhibitions. In addition to the offices located on the two upper floors, the KUB Café Bar is situated within the ground floor of the administration building, which was expanded in 2013, based on a design by Peter Zumthor, to incorporate a space previously used as a museum shop. By positioning the building at a right angle to Kornmarktplatz, an urban space was created that is open to the town and, in the KUB Café Bar, integrates the Kunsthaus into civic life and is used for events accompanying exhibitions.  \nKunsthaus Bregenz  \n[Ed. by](Ed. by) Kunsthaus Bregenz [www.kunsthaus-bregenz.at](www.kunsthaus-bregenz.at)  \n[Graphic design: Stefan Gassner](Graphic design: Stefan Gassner)  \nTranslation: Sabine Bürger & Tim Beeby  \nPhotos: Markus Tretter S. 1 , 2; Matthias Weissengruber S. 6  \nTechnical drawings:© Kunsthaus Bregenz Printed by: Druckerei Thurnher  \n2021, printed in Austria All rights reserved © 2021 Kunsthaus Bregenz  \n06 KUB Kunsthaus Bregenz | Architecture","cbCaivkCICKTtkxA","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivkCICKTtkxA","pdf",1880450,"English","# Site and Design\n## Façade\n## Administration Building, KUB Café Bar, and KUB Square\n## Kunsthaus Bregenz","[{\"question\":\"When was Kunsthaus Bregenz constructed and opened, and who designed it?\",\"answer\":\"Kunsthaus Bregenz was under construction from 1994 to 1997 and opened in 1997.
