The Musée Atelier Audemars Piguet designed by BIG - Bjarke Ingels Group unifies the original workshop established by Audemars Piguet’s founders with a new all-glass structure, made up of two spirals, that seamlessly integrates into the existing landscape. The spiral-shaped gallery, reminiscent of the spring of a timepiece and entirely supported by its own curved glass walls which flanks the original workshop where the Audemars Piguet story began in 1875, and where a previous museum was housed from 1992 to 2019.
