Technology in Study

Hello, again! I back with yet another post today. This time it'll include pictures of my case study building and what technology is used within it. So let's go ahead and get started!
The exterior (left) of the High Museum of Art is mainly made up of white enameled steel. Many windows are arranged throughout the building, including on the roof which creates a skylight. These windows allow natural light and the color used also helps to attract light. Another technology that's enforced in this building is a concrete frame underneath the steel. This allows for a stronger structure and makes it more sustainable.
The interior (right) of the building varies depending what room you're in. For instance, as shown in the image, the galleries have white walls and wooden floor paneling. Along with that, there's also a series of curved windows above the room to help not only the lighting of the room but the acoustics as well.
