A dazzling use of daylight and design merges in this new museum, hung with contemporary landscapes, calligraphy and modern art that stands out boldly from a seemingly infinite white space. In a nod to the local vernacular, the interior composition includes a lovely courtyard, sprouting bamboo. The museum is an element of a large complex that also includes the Suzhou Cultural Center and a theatre.
