The Royal Ontario Museum is still basking under its new Crystal addition by architect Daniel Libeskind. I've written about him, including his original design for the New York "Freedom Towers" which had to be revised by another architect for their unstable structure.
His ROM extension is another unstable, or unstable-looking, construction, and critics are concerned that the outer wall may actually start to fall apart in the future.
His interior has also been criticized for its awkward walls - how are they going to hang the paintings on those angular, slanting spaces? And his dinosaur section doesn't leave much for elbow room, and in fact can cause injury due to jutting out corners (especially to young children visiting the collections).
Well, the proud elite of the ROM team have now designed their logo mimicking this crumbling structure.
Future generations will not be impressed - if the building stays that long.
