The Mercedes-Benz Museum, touted as the most beautiful building in the world.

The September issue of *World Architecture* last year introduced this museum designed by the Dutch UN Studio. The latest issue of *PAPER* also featured it on the cover, calling it "one of the most beautiful buildings in the world." In my recent conceptual design for a museum, I originally intended to use a spiraling visiting route similar to Wright's Guggenheim. However, as I delved deeper into the design, I increasingly noticed its resemblance to the Mercedes-Benz Museum — HOHO, could it be that fleeting glance I had last year in *World Architecture* subtly influenced my thinking?
