Modern Art Platform

in #architecture7 years ago

An architectural design project and a personal favorite!

An abandoned custom house in the coastal line of Patras. The aim of the project was to reuse this huge brutalistic building into a modern platform of modern art, linking the inner city with its sea side.

Proposed solution

The museum is connected with the city through a glass bridge ending in another abandoned building at the edge of the city centre. The interior walls have been moved or removed, creating 'white boxes' inside the structure of this historical landmark. The citizens of Patra will have their chance for a new cultural centre, combining art, leisure and education into a social condensador, connecting with its surroundings.

I go to Nafpaktos several times a year so this if happens it will be spectacular and I can't wait to see it.

Well I am not sure if you mean about Patras, but the project refers to Patras sea front. But from what I have seen the two cities do share the same similar landscape. I am.really glad you liked it and hope.you get to see much more of the greek countryside :)

Greetings from sunny Greece!!
