New Aspen Art Museum - September 18, 2012
Description: The new 30,000-square-foot AAM facility will feature 12,500 sf of exhibition space, including six galleries, one of which will also act as a black box theater, as well as an education classroom, museum shop, and cafe. The facility will consist of four floors, with one level below grade and three levels above grade, and will include key design elements that achieve Ban's vision for the new facility as a state-of-the-art space to experience the museum's mission of bringing contemporary art to Aspen and visitors from around the globe. These elements include a grand staircase along the South Spring Street side of the building that allows for natural blending of the outdoor and the interior spaces of the museum to create contemplative and relaxing breaks between gallery spaces infused with natural light; a "moving room" glass elevator that will animate the northeast corner of the new AAM where South Spring Street and East Hyman Avenue meet; a woven exterior screen and roof structure that will allow the building to remain a transparent facility that will marry interior and exterior spaces; and a rooftop sculpture terrace facing Aspen's picturesque main skiing/snowboarding mountain, Ajax Mountain. Additional design elements also include an on-site artist studio, administrative offices and conference room, and a loading dock and freight elevator in the alley between Hyman Avenue and Cooper Street.
