The Long Museum in Shanghai – designed by Atelier Deshaus – has been revealed in stunning new imagery by British architectural photographers Hufton+Crow.
Deshaus’ design, which was shortlisted for
The Designs of the Year 2015 awards architecture category, has been brought to life in the duo’s imagery.
The museum is located next to the Huangpu River, Xuhui District, on a site that was formerly used for coal transportation and its design symbolises the area's industrial past.
A 1950s Coal-Hopper-Unloading-Bridge of about 110m (360ft) long, 10m (32ft) in width and 8m (26ft) high, has been integrated into the design.
Photographs of the museum are now on display at the Designs of the Year 2015 awards exhibition at the Design Museum, London, until August 23, 2015.
