Museum architecture

Museum architecture[1] has been of increasing importance over the centuries, especially more recently.[2][3][4]

A challenge for museum architecture is the differing purposes of the building.[citation needed] The museum collection must be preserved, but it also needs to be made accessible to the public. Climate control may be very important for the objects in the collection.
