comparison of the Met and Guggenheim

New York City has been repeatedly called "the most wonderful city in the world" from its own people and city visitors. New York is the most civilized world in the city. It gives the overwhelming impression of magnets and mirrors made by all humanity and all human beings. For a city not so young, New York is home to many architectural classics. Two of the masterpieces of architecture are the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Guggenheim Museum. Both continue New York's metaphor as the world's world, one of which involves a potential integration of shapes and functions depending on the other.

Metropolitan and Guggenheim have two appearances of the world's most famous museums. After seeing the Guggenheim Museum, people were impressed with their designs and were interested (Figure 1-4). It is an organic form derived from the opposite Central Park. The best impression of the structure comes from the other side of the street (Figure 1). The attention to details can be seen everywhere - a circular pattern of the sidewalk outside the museum, the porthole on the south side (Photo 4), and the smoothness of the concrete polished by hand. The main part of the Western facade (facing Fifth Avenue) is an upward spiral helix (Figure 1-3). There is a horizontal line on the entire outer surface, the height of the museum is higher than the height of the back. There are few smooth and mixed corners to form the focus. Like his other buildings, the light uses cantilevered buildings with free corners.

The location of the building is very important and usually provides insight into the function of the building. The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum is located between 88th and 89th Street on Fifth Avenue (Figure 1). It was ordered by Solomon Guggenheim in 1943. Guggenheim chose Frank Lloyd Wright and designed a new building to house a non-objective painting museum in Guggenheim's 4-year history. Light did not want to pick New York as the museum's place, but he finally decided the current position. The proximity to Central Park is an important factor in his decision - the park provides a breathing space for the bustle of the city and is as close as possible to the city's nature (Figure 2). Like the lobby house and running water, this museum has inspiration from nature, the product of its environment. As stated on the official website, the Guggenheim Museum of Art is "materializing Wright's attempt to present the inherent plasticity of organic forms in architecture."
