Project Description
FROM THE ARCHITECT:
Together with the Technologic Center, this museum is part of the Guadalupe River Park Development. Considering the characteristics of the program & the building, it has been projected as a small gem in the park. The variety and geometric forms as well as the colors respond to those requirements.
The square solution reminds a street next to the garden and water, the vertical scale helps achieve the sensation of living in the exterior. The spaces, corners, windows and even the route, invite the children to investigate and have fun. The use of natural light and the fluency of spaces play an important roll in the design.
