Here's a link to a NY Times photo slideshow "A view of David Adjaye's architectural models, part of "David Adjaye: Making Public Buildings" at The Studio Museum in Harlem," and a link to the Times article reviewing the show: Pursuing Public Space in a Time of Private Interest.
From the article:
"The taut, compact form of Mr. Adjaye’s Museum of Contemporary Art
in Denver is slightly distorted to give it a stronger presence in the
civic landscape. The main facade is set at a slight angle so that it is
visible as you approach from downtown; the galleries are divided into
three separate vertical stacks with circulation weaving up between them
to a semipublic rooftop restaurant and garden."
