Poland Architecture Photography - Museum of the Second World War, Gdansk

Winter is upon us again and snow has recently started to blanket large parts of Poland. I took this as a good opportunity to head up North to the coastal city of Gdansk and shoot various architectural landmarks in this specific visual setting. In particular, I was keen to photograph the beautiful Museum of the Second World War by Kwadrat architecture studio. The deep rusty-red color of its structure contrasting sharply with the muted white surroundings, giving the story of this architectural design even more impact.
