National Museum of Wildlife Art
Jackson Hole, Wyoming
USA

Situated on a dramatic cliff overlooking the Jackson National Elk Refuge, the National Museum of Wildlife Art appears to emerge from the earth like a natural outcropping of rock. The museum's location provides a rare opportunity to view wildlife in its natural habitat, as does the artwork that pays tribute to it.

Constructed of rough stone to blend seamlessly into the native terrain of Jackson, Wyoming, the building captures and reflects the area's natural beauty. The end result is a design that is original, contextually relevant and timeless.
