FREDERIC C. HAMILTON BUILDING, DENVER ART MUSEUM

The Rocky Mountains inspired the design of the Frederic C. Hamilton Building, an expansion of the Denver Art Museum. It opened in 2006. Architect Daniel Libeskind’s 146,000-square-foot creation is covered in 9,000 titanium panels, all of which evoke the peaks and geometric rock crystals of the surrounding Rockies.
