@RERC_SNCF Je viens de me faire heurter au visage par les portes automatiques de la gare Saint Michel. Mes lunettes se sont cassées. Les employés de la gare m'ont dit de le signaler en ligne, mais je ne sais pas où.

More than 3 colours, it's 3 editions! Yet all with one of several intricate illustrations of Éva Le Roi on their cover. This guide is the key to unlocking the sophisticated architecture, elaborate open spaces and curated art collection of the Novartis Campus. Happy release day!

Thirty years ago, the Channel Tunnel finally linked the United Kingdom and France!

This feat brought people closer together, gave new impetus to our trade and confirmed the strength of our political relationship.

Happy birthday to… us! On January 31, 1984, the ‘Architekturmuseum in Basel’ foundation was established. Later that year, the Architecture Museum made the Domus House its seat, saving the building from demolition.

We are pleased that 'Mock-Up' continues to travel with new foci on its original elements. An upcoming exhibition at Kunst Meran/o Arte will focus on mock-ups as a critical interface between planning and execution – one that does neither exist in South Tyrol nor Italy.

The invitation to reflect on its meaning for myself has unmasked me as a rather hasty traveler. As Alice's rabbit, I’m always late, late, late… even if I am early.

You were numerous in making this a very special year for us! But as this has also been a difficult year for many, we are pleased that the S AM has often also served as a public living room in addition to being a museum.
We hope to see you back at the S AM soon !
