"We want the new addition to be a billboard for life inside the museum," [Walker Director] Halbreich explains. . . . "[Lighting designer Arnold] Chan makes public spaces feel inviting, and he understands the emotion of light. We were looking at how to make the space at times intimate and at times dramatic."
