Crystal, canopy and line [BAB 2021]

Abstract

Unlike the Museum's architecture, which dominates the border between green (the park) and blue (the sky), the designed pavilion feels like an unobtrusive curved floating line, like a hinterland that only emphasizes the weight of the white crystal with its own immediate surroundings. Contrary to the monumentality and weight with which the Museum participates in the landscape of the city on a macro level, the newly designed pavilion aims to become an instrument of communication of the Museum with the immediate park environment, on a micro scale.
