Would you ever say that this is an automotive museum?!
Would you ever say that this is an automotive museum?!
The Petersen museum became a mecca for car fans, but in recent years it had become clear that it was in need of a major upgrade. So a group of deep-pocketed L.A. car enthusiasts got involved to help oversee a renovation. After some 14 months of work, the Petersen museumis spectacular: the exterior has been covered by an amazing display of large flowing metal strips over a red building. It’s a controversial look, praised by some for it audacity, criticized by others for its flamboyance. Whatever your take on the Petersen’s new look, it’s now impossible to miss.
