Having grown-up in Poland, Israel and America, Libeskind has continued to move from country to country. His youngest daughter, born in Italy while he worked there, is mainly German-speaking having been brought up in Berlin where he and his family lived during the 10 years it took to complete the Jewish Museum.

Rather like his architecture, which transcends borders between countries, between past and present, between pain and hope, Libeskind is difficult to pin down. As he said in an interview with Giles Worsley, home is "not here or there, it's a kind of journey…People identify [with] some piece of ground, some place, but it is illusory because the world is global".
