Columbus, Indiana, is a city that seems to defy convention: in the way it looks, sure, but also in the way it entices you to look at it. Thanks to the work of modern architects brought by local philanthropist and visionary, J. Irwin Miller, Columbus has become a nationally recognized architectural wonderland. There are odd, elegant shapes, unexpected angles and interesting forms rising up all around you here—an artistically innovative town where Midwestern cottages and mom-and-pop shops share street corners with avant-garde installations. It’s no wonder architecture buffs from around the globe find their way to our modern Midwest mecca.
You’ll be surprised by the wealth of extraordinary buildings of architectural significance and public art that surround the hotel. There’s a Dale Chihuly chandelier in the Columbus Visitors Center, while Jean Tinguely’s kinetic sculpture, Chaos I, and Henry Moore’s Large Arch are located downtown.

Miller House expands upon an architectural tradition developed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe with an open and flowing layout, flat roof, and stone and glass walls. The rooms, configured beneath a grid pattern of skylights, are filled with textiles that feature strong colors and playful patterns. Don't miss the large geometric gardens with their honey locust trees.
When it opened in 1972, it was in the heart of the entertainment and business district. The Commons was rebuilt in 2011 and serves as the community hub. The ground floor houses a playground and food court, and the upper level has performance space for up to 450 people. Three sides of the building are enclosed in glass, and more than 15 types of glass were used.
A fun, safe, inviting place, the museum nurtures exploration and creativity, and is a vibrant learning hub that enriches the life of every child who visits. Spend time in the Childhood Garden, enjoy Our House-Japan, scamper up the 17-foot-tall climbing wall, or hang out in the bubble room. Don’t miss the ExploraHouse, home of our world-famous giant toilet.
