ON THE COVER: Designed to a T
In contrast to the classical profile of the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art’s original Beaux-Arts structure, the museum’s new addition—the Bloch Building—features an irregular shape that cascades down the adjoining hillside. The addition is located mostly underground except for five structures clad in translucent glass panels that rise above grade and allow natural light to penetrate the gallery spaces below.
