National Football Museum Glass Facade, Manchester

8 October 2019 · Manchester

The National Football Museum in Exchange Square reads as pure architectural geometry — a wedge of glass pushing a sharp diagonal against a clear Manchester sky. The curved curtain wall catches the light evenly across its face, the building occupying its corner of the city with calm, deliberate weight. Pedestrians cross the plaza below, giving the scale something to hold against.
