The entry is functionally good, uncontrived, and handsome. The foyer spaces and curving ceiling can be used for exhibitions to project their themes externally. The spaces are easily approachable and locatable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe annex will serve as a symbol of our contemporary understanding of national values and culture. JKMM\u2019s work exemplifies cultural renewal and its power to effect change, while also underlining the unique architecture of the existing building. From a practical standpoint, the structure of the new spaces also corresponds to the needs of the museum\u2019s expanding operations,\u201d said Elina Anttila, director general of the National Museum of Finland.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Uusi Kansallinen (\u2018the New National\u2019) architecture competition held this year sought proposals for the design of an annex to the National Museum of Finland.
