| dc.description | View down the stairs from the second to the third floor off the Bartlit Sculpture Deck (to the right); The Hamilton Building's design recalls the peaks of the Rocky Mountains and geometric rock crystals found in the foothills near Denver. "I was inspired by the light and the geology of the Rockies, but most of all by the wide-open faces of the people of Denver," says Libeskind. The building is covered in 9,000 titanium panels that reflect the Colorado sunshine. The 146,000-square-foot Hamilton Building opened to the public October 7, 2006.
