The acclaimed Chicago architect takes Galerie on a tour of the canyon-like addition to the American Museum of Natural History

Award-winning architect Jeanne Gang, one of Galerie’s 2023 Creative Minds, recently unveiled her sculptural design for newest wing of New York’s American Museum of Natural History. The 190,000-square-foot project—officially the Richard Gilder Center for Science, Education, and Innovation—knits together new and existing galleries that radiate from a central, canyon-like atrium. “We were looking at ways to find spaces that would encourage exploration,” the Chicago-based architect tells Galerie. Watch the video below as the Studio Gang founder showcases the soaring, light-filled space, which is destined to become one of the city’s most visited architectural landmarks.
