Designed by STH
Architects, The International Museum of Cartoon Art is South Florida's most imaginative
destination. The exterior personality of the museum responds in character, color,
texture, material and scale with the site's upscale area of shops, restaurants and
theatres; a liberal Mediterranean-style interpretation popularized by Addison Mizner.
Simple and direct detailing offers animated whimsy that beckons one in for a humorous
treat. Sculpture terraces, colonnade, and a glockenspiel clock tower creates instant
visitor response. The main floor houses 25,000 square feet with fifty percent of the space
dedicated to exhibits and the remainder comprised of a library, exhibit support, gift
shop, cafe, outdoor sculpture garden, and administrative space. Also included in the
design is a 250-seat Theatre as well as demonstration studios. |
