MUSEO SOUMAYA MAZE

A maze of the Museo Soumaya in Mexico City, Mexico. The maze is of the building named the Plaza Carso, opened in 2011 and designed by Mexican Architect Fernando Romero, who happens to be the son-in-law of Mexican Billionaire Carlos Slim Helú. You can read the wiki about the building here, or visit their website and plan a trip.

Now this maze made me rethink what the possible solutions are to a maze. One of the most popular options that people inquire about is the hidden message maze where the solution is a word. The solution to this maze is a variation on that theme. You’ll have to solve it to find out what it is !

The Maze: Mostly black and white, but when I made the leaves that cover the front of the building I decided to make them the correct color ! I embedded the title on the base of the building rather than put it in the corner because I thought it fit there naturally.

This became part of my Case Study#8 - Improving Previous Mazes when I decided to add color the maze. I like how it came out !
