Source catalog description

This description refers to material held by Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture. Visual details below describe the original material.

An Adobe Illustrator file of the “upper view render” from a project titled “Black Effect” by Tobi Ashiru. The project is an artistic reimagining of the National Museum of African American History and Culture with this view depicting an elevated exterior view from the west side of the building, looking south. The rendering is shown from the perspective of a balcony on top of an overhang above Heritage Hall. The balcony features a narrow strip of greenspace that extends almost the full length of the building to the southwest corner. Behind the greenspace there is a brown bench that runs the full length of the greenspace and in front is line of windows. Behind the bench are windows and a square windowed enclosure. The first and second tiers of the museum building on this side of the building are rendered in white with diagonal black stripes above.
