Researching materials
Over 1,000 objects can be studied in Baubibliothek's Material Collection, offering visitors the opportunity to experience woods, metals, rocks, synthetics or materials first hand.
The Material Archive website offers a wealth of additional information on material description, properties, processing techniques and manufacturing methods. Moreover, photos illustrate traditional and innovative material patterns and application examples.
The collection is open to students and scientists from all disciplines and anyone else who is generally interested.
