Picture gallery meets archive

Picture gallery meets archive

We used precise and inventive spatial organization to accommodate all the necessary functions: gallery, archive, office. We lined the perimeter of our hybrid space with storage shelves, while at the center we placed a pavilion accommodating meeting rooms on the inside and gallery walls on the outside. We made the rooftop of the pavilion an indoor terrace that hosts special installations for design furniture and contemporary sculpture.

We proudly showcase the archive, usually so aesthetically neglected and hidden from view.
