It is indeed architecturally superb but unfortunately it is in completely the wrongplace, squeezed in between a primary school, a large road and apartment blocks (albeit attractive blocks). They are however beautifying the small wooded area next to it, which should be lovely. The museum itself is apparently not fantastically interesting and has created a lot of controversy. My estimate is that in 10, or less, years time, the building will, obviously, still be in place but a different museum will inhabit it. I live in the town of the museum.

The Green volume angled outward as it goes up is a tree, the yellow angled down seems to be sunlight, some of the redish/orange colors are buildings. Its almost like a minature world within the museum itself, relating to Herge's profession of a "world within a comic book."

The rooms probably have exhibits of Hergé's works. The colourful walls have openings in them where people look like they enter into rooms.

It just seems to be a building full of colourful walls with graphics and odd angles. Doesn't seem to be much point. I do like the exterior and the huge Tintin image so what exactly is in the museum?
