Because of its location, in a park at the southernmost end of a historical Victorian-style housing district, It was necessary for the architect to consider both the preservation of the dense growth of 150-year old trees in the park and the surrounding historical neighborhood. SANAA designed the museum as a low, single-story pavilion with a series of courtyards open the sky, so that visitors, when inside the building, still feel they are walking under the trees.
