This image captures the Contemplative Court located inside the National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, D.C.

​Designed by David Adjaye as a space for reflection and quiet meditation, the court features a central cylindrical waterfall that descends from a skylight into a circular pool below.

The walls of the chamber are made of caramel-toned, bronze-laminated glass and feature engraved quotes from historical figures, including Martin Luther King Jr. and Nelson Mandela.

Have you visited this space, or is it on your list?

He has often spoken out against the common practice of firms providing free sketches or preliminary designs to win competitions or clients.
