Royal Ontario Museum
Michael Lee-Chin Crystal addition to the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on August 20, 2011. Designed by Daniel Libeskind, the Deconstructivist crystalline-form is clad in 25 percent glass and 75 percent aluminum sitting on top of a steel frame. The Crystal's canted walls do not touch the sides of the existing heritage buildings, save for where pedestrian crossing occurs and to close the envelope between the new form and the existing walls. The Architectural Opening of the 'Michael Lee-Chin Crystal' was controversial. Public opinion was divided about the merits of its angular design. The Royal Ontario Museum (ROM) is a museum of world culture and natural history in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. (Photo by Creative Touch Imaging Ltd./NurPhoto)
