Like other areas of life, the way we use our homes is subject to constant change. If you compare today’s new buildings with properties from the 1970s or 1980s, for example, it quickly becomes apparent that the architectural style, the room sizes and the room concept (floor plan) have changed considerably.

Now there is an alternative to cruises on huge ships far out at sea or in tourist-crowded ports, with extreme luxury, huge buffets, large crowds and long journeys across the sea from place to place? The newly built MS Attila offers, among other things, luxurious six-day cruises across Lakes Murten, Neuchâtel and Biel.

Sometimes it takes so little to completely change the perception of a building and create entirely new references to the surrounding landscape. An unconventional work of art in and around the Museum Beyeler makes this clear.
