| Keywords: glasgow summer august 2015 august2015 kelvingrove main atrium mainatrium hall architecture This is the main atrium in Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum and it's fabulous. Grand in scale and decoration it's a glorious space to be in. We were treated to an organ recital, which happens daily for visitors. Apparently the organ was part of the design brief for the building as music had to be able to be heard all the way through the building. They must have achieved it by very careful placement of the organ pipes. Apparently those you can see here in the walnut casing are all dummies just for appearance!
