Johnson Museum of Art, Ithaca New York

Architect: I.M.Pei

The natives call it the 'Sewing Machine', I just call it great.

*NEWS BREAK* Groundbreaking has recently taken place for an addition on the other side of the museum--Pei did the planning.

Before going to NYC, I saw that these towers were located within the city, but I never looked to find out where, so I was delighted to stumble across them on one of our daily marches through the streets.
Pei's ability to create fascinating buildings based on relatively simple geometries always impresses me. Here, the balance between the solid masses and the open grid gives the complex a perfect balance.
