modam - museo e scuola della moda milano, milano, italia (2006)
competition with pre-selection - 2nd place.
A distorted and crystalline horizontal prism takes on the character of a pavilion in the park. It is organised in three levels: the ground level, very permeable, is occupied, as expected, with the reception and spaces of a more public nature; hovering over is the upper level with the school spaces; the basement contains the exhibition spaces of the museum. A series of patios, stairs and ramps provide the interaction between the different levels, and the accesses, the lighting and event areas.
