Among its features are 16- to 21-foot ceilings, floor-to-ceiling window line, a 7,000 s/f
pitched skylight in the center of the second floor and skylights throughout the entire third floo.
The Kunstverein is very plain: an elongated rectangle with light entering through
pitched skylights. At the back of it Wright drew, starting from the floor, alternating rows of squares and parallelograms up the wall.
Heeding Brown's wish for a traditional roofline, Stan Allen and James Corner, architect and landscape architect of Field Operations, devised
pitched skylights recalling angled salt box houses.
