A City-Sized Museum
Imagine a museum as big as a city floating above an impressive public plaza. Such is the bold proposal by MAD Architects, a firm well known for their unorthodox architecture.
MAD Architect's submission to the National Museum of China Competition proposes an iconic building with an inhuman scale. An elevated public square with a huge floating building above is proposed which will be located along the central axis of the 2008 Olympic site.
Such a mind boggling building is only possible ever since China's opening up to the world in the 1970s. The booming creative scene in Beijing has propelled many outstanding artists to the global stage. As such more investment and recognition are being given to Chinese artists.
Connected by a bridge to the Olympic Park, the proposed museum intertwines nature with functions to blur the distinction between indoors and outdoors. The impressive exhibition space will have open views towards the city.
