The DeYoung in San Francisco

Truly one of the memorable museums of the United States. Designed by French/Swiss Architects Herzog and de Meuron. $202 million dollars at 203,000 square feet. A wonderful setting and a wonderful environment to display and view art. The copper panels have a design taken from a digitized photograph of the surrounding tree canopy. From the tower one sees San Francisco and the Hills of the City. On a pleasant day this can be a feast for the eyes!
