CULTURAL HERITAGE AT THE HEART OF THE STATE LIBRARY

With Stabi Kulturwerk, a new exhibition centre was created within the historic Unter den Linden building of the Berlin State Library. Across around 1,000 m², manuscripts, books, maps, artworks and archival documents from significant collections are presented. Sehner developed 40 bespoke museum display cases that protect sensitive originals, support changing presentations and integrate precisely into the spatial dramaturgy.
