adjaye-designed studio museum in harlem opens as new home for black art and culture

The Studio Museum in Harlem officially opens its purpose-built new home on West 125th Street on November 15, 2025, marking the first time the institution has had a building designed specifically for its program. Designed by Adjaye Associates with architect Pascale Sablan, the 82,000-square-foot museum features a double-height street-level window, a 'reverse stoop' entrance, expanded exhibition and public spaces, artist-in-residence studios, and a roof terrace. The facade uses dark-grey precast concrete and bronze-toned glass to reference Harlem's masonry architecture while signaling a refined contemporary presence.
