FRONT 19 ARCHITECT MARCH <strong>2014</strong> ON THE DRAWING BOARD THE NEXT ADDITION TO THE MENIL COLLECTION, THE MENIL DRAWING INSTITUTE, LOOKS TO LIVE UP TO A CHALLENGING LEGACY. THE MENIL COLLECTION has never played it safe. With any luck, the young Los Angeles–based firm Johnston Marklee—which debuted its design for the Menil Drawing Institute (MDI), alongside new landscaping by Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates, last month—will follow suit. Due in 2017, the 30,000-square-foot, $40 million project will be the latest addition to the 30-acre Houston arts campus. There, it joins Philip Johnson’s Rothko Chapel and Renzo Piano’s masterful cypress-clad, ingeniously daylit main building—the template for many strikingly similar subsequent Piano museums, winner of the 2013 AIA 25-Year Honor Award, and not an easy act to follow. Early renderings of the MDI show galleries, support, and archival space—plus cloister-like courtyards encircled with white-painted steel canopies in an inverted-hip-roof configuration— packed into a footprint of just 17,000 square feet, all below a 16-foot-high profile consistent with the ridges of nearby cottages. As in Piano’s main building, outdoor space at the DMI extends far inside the perimeter of the institution. But where Piano deployed his daylighting apparatus as an arbor, Johnston Marklee uses those cloisters and canopies, whose deep overhangs ensure the modulated daylighting vital to viewing, to protect delicate works on paper. The shortlist for the project included London’s David Chipperfield <strong>Architect</strong>s (author of the 2009 de Menil campus plan), Tokyo’s SANAA, and Mexico City’s Tatiana Bilbao. Johnston Marklee’s long experience with residential projects—like the firm’s charismatically barnacle-like and muchadmired 2004 Hill House in Pacific Palisades, Los Angeles—helps the firm to mediate between the neighborhood’s domestic scale and the campus’s monumental manner. By investing in an emerging practice rather than in an established name, the MDI has chosen yesterday’s Renzo Piano over today’s. And if Johnston Marklee can put a little more L.A. swagger into this tight but tidy preliminary design, the results may be remarkable.
