I have no respect for this man or for the pseudo-intellectuals who endorse him! He did a *terrible* job with the _Neues Museum_ ! The Stüler building used to be one of the wonders of Old Berlin (i.e. before WW2 left it in ruins). But instead of paying homage to the genius of Friedrich August Stüler, Mr. Chipperfield chose to bestow posterity with yet another reconstruction with the grace and splendour of a _public toilet_ - i.e. a generic style of re-build that has been plaguing post war Germany for decades ... And yet, Chipperfield somehow managed to add insult to injury by adding some arcades that look like something from the pen of Hitler's favourite architect, Albert Speer! ‒ Therefore, I am glad to say hat the good people of my home city of Stockholm had sense enough to sack this serial botcher, before he managed to destroy our inner city with his monstrosity of a Nobel Museum!
