The New Museum, designed by Tokyo-based architects Sejima + Nishizawa / SANAA, is set to open on 1st December.

They have designed a breathtaking facility that will feature beautifully proportioned galleries, a theater, an education floor, a New Museum Store, a café, a top floor event space with roof terraces, and more.

Clad in a silvery, anodized expanded aluminum mesh and punctuated by windows and skylights, the building’s form was conceived to express the ever-changing dynamic of the art and ideas to be presented within.

The Eames Lounge Chair, a classic icon of style and comfort, has been reinterpreted by Vitra in a new palette of light wood, polished aluminium and white leather.
