I like that this golden veil is floating in the courtyard without touching it and all the connections with the building are made by strong, box-like masses. @ilya: I don't think it should continue up to the building and it's better without any holes on the roof! The indirect light coming from the walls of the old building and the filtered light from the top is enough for a museum and also gives a really nice ambiance.

Why not just enjoy it and if you don't, leave your comments out of it. Don't hate, appreciate.
