The entrance hall to Cambridge's Fitzwilliam Museum is a breathtaking piece of drama with two stairs leading to a gallery on three sides, theatrical lighting from clerestories and a glass dome above, and an almost overpowering richness of material. Its sculptural architecture responds both to indirect daylight and to the brief moments of direct sunlight that penetrate the space.
