gobi


MAD Architects out of Beijing recently finished this museum in the Gobi.  Constructed like saturated armour to protect the region's vernacular art collection, it stands as a Botero-inspired mirage in the desert surround.  I'm fascinated by the glassed courtyard to the lower left.  That space must be fantastic to occupy.
