MCA in Denver by David Adjaye

David Adjaye, a phenomenon of the contemporary London scene, has been chosen to design the new headquarters for the Museum of Contemporary Art in Denver. This will be his first project in the United States and also his first museum building. David Adjaye was born forty years ago in Tanzania and is currently considered one of the most prominent figures of his architectural generation. He graduated from the Royal College of Art in 1993 and seven years later founded his own office. Since then, he has exhibited, received awards, and lectured at world universities (Harvard, Yale, Berkeley, AA). Info>
