Available exclusively from RSUA A beautiful synthesis of Neo-Classical and Brutalist architectural styles, the Ulster Museum is one of Belfast’s most loved and iconic buildings. The original building was designed by Architect James Cumming Wynnes, of Edinburgh and was completed in 1929. In 1971 a modernist extension was added, designed by Francis Pym and Paddy Lawson. The contrasting styles blend almost seamlessly together forming an imposing faςade overlooking the Botanic gardens. Model Citizen sees it’s sculptures as a “mechanism to emphasize the beauty and significance of our built heritage,” translating art deco, brutalist, and internationalist styles into tangible, tactile sculptural objects that can be held, felt and explored.
