Freie Universitat Philologische Bibliothek

This library is the architectural gem of the Free University in Berlin. Designed by Lord Norman Foster and built in 2006, it has roof panels that can be adjusted with the sun. Because of its rounded shape and curvy interior, it's been nicknamed 'The Berlin Brain'. Wish we had some of these adjustable shades at the Catonsville Library. Maybe next time around.
