Herzog & de Meuron wrapped this Munich football stadium in a continuous skin of inflated, diamond-shaped cushions, giving it a soft, pillowed silhouette that reads as a single object on the northern edge of the city. The cushioned façade can be lit from within, so the building changes character between day and night.
