Studio Museum Building Magnet

Expressing the character of the community of the Studio Museum in Harlem, while advancing the institution’s global role, the architectural design for our institution’s new home takes its inspiration from the brownstones, churches, and bustling sidewalks of Harlem. 

This magnet depicts the composition of the Museum's facade— a facade filled with windows of varying sizes and proportions that echo the masonry-framed windows of Harlem's apartment buildings.
