heart
the old museum building
the new museum entrance
did i ever show you these photos? some weeks ago i visited a museum on the mainland called HEART herning museum of contemporary art. the museum recently moved into a new building designed by the american architect Steven Holl. i quite liked it, and especially the interior space which had a more organic feel to it.
i hope you are having a beautiful saturday and thanks again for all the congratulations wishes!

ah, lovely seeing your pictures of that building! i recently translated a text about it - it said that holl integrated textile material into the casing for the concrete walls before they were poured, so that the appearance reflects the museum’s focus on textiles.
it looks very subtle on your photos - i like that.

looks like an interesting place! I really like the curve of the building in the second photo from the end.

What a great and inviting space it looks from these photos of yours. Museums of all kinds, the new and the old, I love.

Steven Holl designed a museum of contemporary art, Kiasma for Helsinki too. there are similar curves i can recognize:)
And hey congratulations for you two! Super!
