The ceiling of the Milwaukee Art Museum resembles a space station.

Having a glass ceiling could be a good thing for a building if it’s as stylish as this one at the Milwaukee Art Museum. That said, a potential disadvantage of a transparent roof might be the amount of cleaning involved to keep it looking immaculate! Above the glass in the Art Museum’s Windhover Hall lie the wings of the “Burke Brise Soleil” – a moveable sunscreen that opens and closes two times a day. This ensures that light remains at its optimum level.
