Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen's Science Fiction Museum and Hall of Fame and Experience Music Project. Designed by Frank Gehry, himself of rock star status, Forbes magazine called it one of the world's 10 ugliest buildings. Seattleites nicknamed it The Hemorrhoids or The Blob. A fusion of textures and myriad of colors, the museum structure symbolizes the energy and fluidity of music. The initial form and color scheme stem from smashed and cut up guitars. The exterior consists of stainless steel and painted aluminum shingles, individually cut and shaped. The stainless steel has three finishes: mirrored purple, brushed silver, and bead-blasted gold. The red and blue sections are paint coated aluminum.
