Daly Genik's new building for Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA 6/15/2004

The building is known as the Wind Tunnel because it once housed the largest testing wind tunnel on the west coast. Los Angeles architects Daly Genik have done a marvelous job weaving together this hodgepodge complex of concrete buildings. The biggest design move is the placement of three large skylight structures on the roof which allow daylight to penetrate deep into the building. The skylights are "clad in layered lightweight high-tech plastic" and are a sculptural feature of the roof top garden.
