Contemporary Museum Architecture and Design showcases 18 diverse
essays written by people who design, work in, and study museums,
offering a variety of perspectives on this complex building type.
Throughout, the authors emphasize new kinds of experiences that
museum architecture helps create, connecting ideas about design at
various levels of analysis, from thinking about how the building
sits in the city to exploring the details of technology. With
sections focusing on museums as architectural icons, community
engagement through design, the role of gallery spaces in the
experience of museums, disability experiences, and sustainable
design for museums, the collected chapters cover topics both
familiar and fresh to those interested in museum architecture.
Featuring over 150 color illustrations, this book celebrates
successful museum architecture while the critical analysis sheds
light on important issues to consider in museum design. Written by
an international range of museum administrators, architects, and
researchers this collection is an essential resource for
understanding the social impacts of museum architecture and design
for professionals, students, and museum-lovers alike.
