Phaeno Science Center, Science center in Wolfsburg, Germany.
The Phaeno Science Center spans 12,000 square meters with angular concrete walls, glass surfaces, and elevated structures supported by massive concrete cones.
The center, designed by architect Zaha Hadid, opened its doors in November 2005 as a new type of experimental space in northern Germany.
More than 300 interactive exhibits engage visitors in hands-on experiments, demonstrating scientific principles through direct participation and observation.
The center includes parking facilities for 15,000 vehicles, several dining options, and specialized areas for educational workshops and group activities.
The building features an artificial landscape beneath its main structure, creating valleys and hills that integrate with the experimental spaces above.
