Glass Pavilion at the Cologne Deutscher Werkbund Exhibition

Outline
This is a representative example of German Expressionist architecture that embodies the crystal image of Taut, who was influenced by Paul Schierwald's glass philosophy. The expressive effects of glass are explored in the colored glass dome roof, the glass block walls, and the staircases with glass treads and kickers.
