Centre Pompidou
The inside turned outside — escalators climb the facade, color-coded pipes wrap the exterior.
Why this matters
- Blue = air, green = water, yellow = electricity, red = movement
- External structure freed the interior for column-free galleries
- Won an open competition with 681 entries
- Originally controversial; now the most-visited modern art museum in the world
