ULTRA MODERN DECOR

Ultra Modern Architecture in Toronto, Canada - Crystal Room at Royal Ontario Museum

Architect Daniel Libeskind has gained notoriety as much for his work as for the high-profile nature of his projects. His design was up for consideration for the redesign of the World Trade Centre towers post 9/11. The architect has recently shared the spotlight with Toronto-based B+H Architects for their spectacular addition of the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto, Canada. Housing 10 new galleries within a 100,000-sq.-ft. extension, the newly built Michael Lee-Chin Crystal (named for its financial donor) is the jewel of downtown Toronto. The new addition to the local landmark adds an innovative juxtaposition of old and new; traditional and ultra-modern; historic and futuristic. The architecture boasts an understated elegance during daylight hours that doesn’t even hint at what is to come once night comes alive. Lit up in a lively display, the early morning often draws crowds that rival those of busy daytime hours. Daniel Libeskind and B+H Architects.
