Frank Gehry's building at MIT represents architecture as sculpture, creating a provocative home for the Ray & Maria Stata Center for Computer, Information & Intelligence Sciences. The building's design stretches the use of metal wall cladding to become an exploration of the numerous types, offering a range of qualities rarely used in architecture. The various parts of the building are defined by a variety of metals and glass to create a kind of collage out of large geometric shapes using color, patterns and reflections. The different metals used are brushed aluminum, painted aluminum, mirror-surface steel, corrugated steel and stainless steel (brushed & polished).
