Guggenheim Hermitage Museum Architecture
The Guggenheim Hermitage Museum is located at the front of The Venetian, adjacent to the main entrance lobby. Both the exterior and interior walls of the museum are made of Cor-Ten steel, a material with a velvety rusted surface evocative of the velvet-covered walls in the eighteenth-century classical galleries at the Hermitage. The severity and serenity of the steel facade-which can be seen from the Las Vegas Strip and are strikingly prominent to visitors approaching the hotel-dramatically contrasts with the derivative faux architecture of the major hotels and casinos in the immediate area. On the interior, four symmetrical galleries-each measuring 1500-square-feet-will also have Cor-Ten steel walls, which will contrast with maple wood floors and ceilings. Natural light enters the space from several points on the front perimeter of the building.
