dali musem in florida


This is an interior view of a part of the new Salvador Dali museum in St. Petersburg, FL--designed by HOK (they have a reputation for designing sports venues, but they got this job for some reason)
I went to the original Dali museum about twelve years ago. It seemed liked a perfectly suitable venue and was very well proportioned. I was less observant about architecture back then, however. This new design features some pretty interesting stuff, including this cantilevered spiral staircase. Nice job all around.
