​

The essential form of the Louisiana Traveling Museum is framed by a series of dynamic angles and slopes, which are incorporated into the roofs, walls, and columns to facilitate shading as well as to allow for ambient light to penetrate into the building interior. In addition to sloping the walls and columns, the frame of the building is thickened and light shelves are inserted to shade the building from direct sunlight, meanwhile creating multiple surfaces onto which direct light can bounce off and become ambient light. This integrative roof- facade system, in effect, creates an uniformly and softly lit interior ideal for museum setting.
