On September 25, museum officials held a ribbon-cutting ceremony celebrating the museum's new 8.2 million euro (about $11.6 million) glass courtyard, also designed by Leibeskind. Architect Matthias Rees served as project director.</DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.interiordesign.net/id_newsarticle/CA6491033.html">Liebeskind based the design of the museum's zinc-paneled facade on a deconstructed star; the courtyard is influenced by the "Sukkah," or tabernacle, another important symbol in Judaism. Four tree-like steel pillars hold the U-shaped courtyard up and the glass facade opens onto the museum's garden</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.interiordesign.net/id_newsarticle/CA6491033.html"> A solution to lack of space, the addition will be used for cultural events, including readings and chamber music.
