Elbphilharmonie
A squat brown-brick former warehouse is being transformed into the new Elbphilharmonie, due for completion by 2012. Pritzker Prize-winning Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron are responsible for the design, which, like their Tate Modern building in London, boasts a glass top. This time, however, they're being far more ambitious, as the glass facade should be taller than its brick base and the roof line will rise in wavelike peaks to reflect the waterfront location.
