Take a look at the striking new design for the The Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston. The façade will be composed of identically sized vertical planks in transparent glass, translucent glass and opaque metal. The dramatically cantilevered “gallery box” section will be illuminated at night to become a glowing presence in Boston Harbor. A theater on the 2nd and 3rd floors will have back and side walls of glass allowing a backdrop of a clear view of the harbor or controlled filtering down to complete blackout. The planned completion date is 2006.
