West Coast Fossil Park - I love museum displays. This is an underground soil display.

Modern Museum.

The Imperial Kiln Museum, designed by Studio Pei Zhu, has been opened to public in the historical area of Jingdezhen, known as the ‘Porcelain Capital’ of the world. The new #museum comprises more than half a dozen brick vaults based on the traditional form of the Kiln. The vaults (each a different size, curvature, and length) are integrated with the many existing ruins, some of which were discovered during the project’s construction.

Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen embarked on the construction of the world’s first publicly accessible depot designed by MVRDV. The MAZE in the heart of the building, the Atrium, was developed by a team made up of Marieke van Diemen ism MVRDV.

Sorry to the car enthusiasts, for focusing more on the plinth details than the cars themselves, but the design of the exhibits at the Porsche museum, in Stuttgart, Germany, is one of the best I’ve ever seen. From the angle of the plinths carried throughout as a consistent design language, the detail of the movable graphic lecterns embedded in the etched stainless steel rail, to the lighting cleverly hidden in the ceiling. Not to mention the large curved LED screen behind translucent white Corian that transforms the backdrop into a raceway track. Note regarding the content: the minimalistic interpretive approach helps the clean design, and it worked for me, with only a few graphic panels, and clever audio-visual and digital interactive components (engineers in the making as my son loved it, and I finally understood how a Turbo works ;). The story focuses on the cars and Porsche’s engineering achievements. A known criticism is the shy coverage of the involvement of Ferdinand Porsche’s engineering office founded in 1931 with the National Socialism until the end of WWII. Especially in these challenging times, learning from our mistakes and making sure history doesn’t repeat itself seems utterly important and something that should be more present, at least in the backdrop of the overall story (something that the nearby Mercedes museum does very well). Score: Overall design 9.5/10 Interpretation/storyline: 7/10 Audio-guide: 8/10 Digital interactives: 8/10 Artifacts: 9/10 (although unfortunately I don’t fit in those super cars ;) What the numbers mean: 10: otherworldly 9: exceptional 8: very good 7: good but lacking something 6: okay... 5 and under: :( The museum opened in 2009, display area 5600 sqm, overall cost 100 million euros.

The sculptural new Victoria and Albert Museum in Dundee, Scotland, by Kengo Kuma and Associates (@kkaa_official) opens its doors to visitors this weekend. Clad in thick bands of textured concrete panels, the project refers to the cliffs of northeast Scotland. Take a closer look at the @VAdundee, which is part of a larger effort to revitalize the city’s waterfront, in our story: https://www.architecturalrecord.com/articles/13628-kengo-kumas-va-dundee-opens-in-scotland Photo © Hufton+Crow (@HuftonandCrow) . .. ... .. . #architecture #scotland #VandADundee #museumdesign #concrete #HuftonandCrow #KengoKuma (at Dundee) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnobcGbBT9s/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=bj14b7kkzaxg
