To mark the centenary of the birth of Sep Ruf, the Architecture Museum of the Technical University Munich is holding an exhibition celebrating the life and works of one of the most important German architects of the 20th century. With buildings such as the New Maxburg in Munich (1953-1957, together with Theo Pabst), the German Pavilion at the World Expo in Brussels (1958, with Egon Eiermann) and the official Chancellor's bungalow for Ludwig Erhard in Bonn (1963|64), Sep Ruf received international acclaim and played a major role in shaping architecture in the post-war era.
