The Metallic Ceiling of the Louvre
This is the concluding business office that I actually wanted to consider apart from Napoleon together with the Whistler's Mother.
lol.
This breathtaking architecture was designed by Jean Nouvel - H5N1 French architect.
The museum is designed equally a "seemingly floating dome structure"; its web-patterned dome allowing the Sun to filter through. (Wikipedia).
The blueprint of the metallic element ceiling enhances the low-cal that passes thru it.
That's what I'm telling almost upon my get-go impression almost this Museum.
