We took Charlotte up to the newly updated Museum of Anthropology today. Wasn’t sure what to expect and always get nervous when significant architecture gets messed with but the addition seems to at least respect the original design and materials. There’s a new gallery space and a somewhat generic cafe and gift shop along with a new brand identity. Charlotte was interested in the floating white boats installation, part of the Border Zones exhibit. I don’t think Charlotte was too keen on the the new identity or the building additions as she began to cry. We took her outside to enjoy the building from the front but she didn’t like that either (she’s a design purist). It was still great to see so many people enjoying Erickson’s masterpiece along with everything else that was happening inside.
