Mann Island/ New Liverpool Museum Area

[RoddersUK]

I think the Museum is a great design. I attended a talk by the architects in the Renew Rooms some time ago and there was a lot of thought put in to the site lines, massing and materials etc.
Their web site has some very good images showing how the design came about.

I just wish the architects for that black monstrosity thats going up next to it put half as much thought into their design.


PS. Your last picture is part of 'The Real Thing - Contemporary Art From China' exhibition at the Tate.

It's by Ai Weiwei. Although it looks remarkably similar to this.
