A beautiful new museum has been completed in Harbin, northern China. The China Wood Sculpture Museum, created by Beijing-based MAD Architects, is 196 meters of polished steel. It twists and turns around its environment, creating stunning blasts of light and reflection. Three skylights on top of the building let natural light pour into the interior.
Inside the 13,000 square-foot space, wood carvings and local art are housed for all to see.
