Great to read another achievement by the office of Meier. The stardom savyy architects of the past years seem to send Meier to obscurity. If the information is accurate the museum shall be a success, just the use of travertine makes an architecture to itself.

Wow, a Meier building that is not smooth and white!! There is hope for us all... except the local pigeons, of course

[Landy]

ha! good image Lekizz... I think there is a solution to that problem a row of spikes welded to a main rod or cover the opening with a virtual invissible net. Again awesome image...

Or maybe they need a white cat
