The museum blends into the landscape as a structure shaped by the contours of the terrain, which transform into a dynamic topography.
PROGRAM
The landscape building functions like a large theater, equipped with outdoor and indoor stages, even installed on the vast sloping roof.

DESCRIPTION
Designed around a large public esplanade, it is distinguished by a deformation of the ground that raises a triangular slab with vegetated slopes. This elevation, exploited to its full thickness, forms the main space of the museum. The forecourt, designed as an extension of the surrounding area, extends beneath the structure. Access to the museum is via a series of ramps, escalators, and elevators suspended in this vast covered hall. Thus, the landscape building functions as a large theater offering both outdoor and indoor stages.
