Is it a tipi or a mountain? Many who have traveled to the AHC's incredible building have debated which type of Western icon inspired this unique architecture. Antoine Predock's original conceptual sketch of the Centennial Complex building illustrates a structure existing in harmony with the mountainscape of southeastern Wyoming. This ink and pastel composition also shows a light stream of smoke rising from the fireplace in our loggia, quite like the indigenous homes of the plains. So, which is it? Tell us what you think our cone represents. #architectursday #architecture #antoinepredock #laramie #alwaysarchiving #archivesofinstagram (at American Heritage Center)

Another beautiful sub-freezing winter's day in Laramie. It's the cold that makes our cone shine in the sun. #architectursday #architecture #antoinepredock #alwaysarchiving #archivesofinstagram #laramie #wyoming #uwyo (at American Heritage Center)
