dear designboom reader,

renowned architects are reported to have designed recent museums and galleries, including fondation cartier pour l’art contemporain’s new landmark building in paris by jean nouvel. plans of the las vegas museum of art have also been unveiled, a structure designed by francis kéré.

some of the cultural institutions also have new facades, such as the dichroic glass collage by tereza šváchová around the museum of glass and jewelry in czech republic. in senegal, it’s the earth-filled bags that balouo salo has used within the multipurpose cultural center and museum of traditions.

thanks for reading!
