When it comes to a building, interior or piece of art that has deep meaning and provides a source of inspiration, Bruce recognizes The Guggenheim in New York.

“Designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, The Guggenheim is a sculptural piece of architecture that functions extremely well (although unconventionally) to exhibit fine art, and is actually art itself,” says Bruce.

Bruce particularly loves the organic nature and shape of the building and how it sits so comfortably along Central Park. The large rotunda volume welcomes visitors in such an awe-inspiring way.
