By one of the world's most famous and distinguished architects, his remarkable account of the re-design of Berlin's Reichstag--the home of Germany's parliament and symbol of a new and re-united Germany.
In 1992, Germany decided to move its parliament from Bonn back to Berlin and to house it in the historic Reichstag. Sir Norman won the subsequent competition to use the shell of the building and completely re-think it as a symbol of a new age in the nation's history. Opened exactly on time this May to coincide with Berlin's new status as capital and once again as a great city, his design incorporates a glass dome, built above the assembly chamber, from which visitors can view the vibrant city below.
