Description

While redesigning the museum, Taniguchi expanded it to its pre-1984 configuration. The existing Goodwin & Stone facade has been restored as the new entrance to the film and video center; the "Bauhaus" staircase has become a connection between departmental galleries; and the 1984 Cesar Pelli Museum Tower has been integrated fully into the urban ensemble.
