dc.descriptionDetail of corner window; In these buildings, as well as in the houses, he clearly articulated public and private zones in an attempt to clarify and redefine a sense of order, and this articulation is expressed again in the structure. For example, the High Museum of Art is a complex composition of structural forms, cylindrical and rectilinear, with the entrance and public areas defined by large expanses of windows while the gallery walls are solid, white surfaces. The relationships of solid and void are emphasized by the whiteness and by the play of sunlight and shadow on the interlocking geometric volumes.
