Essen to Rotterdam

Day Three started with the Zollverein School of Management and Design by SANAA.




Next was the Ruhr Museum that is an old coal factory that has been renovated into museums



Then we went to the Red Dot museum in the same complex of reclaimed industrial building. It is a museum that displays items that have won the Red Dot award. They display anything from sofas, to doorknobs, to vacuum cleaners.






I had Dr. Pepper in the Netherlands and it was amazing!

  1. this was your first day in the Netherlands, right? those museums are so cool! taking old industrial buildings and refurbishing them into modern museums usually turns out pretty awesome. I've heard of the Red Dot Awards. don't remember where. I notice the cloudy weather in all the pictures ;)
