With formal simplicity and elegance, avoiding pretentious ostentation, the new building relies its limpid expression on a rigorous architectural style, grounded on the context. Rising into the geometries of the city-center, well-defined volumes merge with the landscape; abstract hints of the greenery, of the sky lightly wave and shimmer on the glassy interruptions of the façade, adding to the solidity of the structure an ethereal character and a strong connection with the place. Softening boundaries and removing distinctions, the new Bauhaus Museum seems to live the paradox of wanting to create a Museum within a park. Its to be half-open and half-closed, half a park and half a building, plays an important role in its attractiveness: landscape and structure complement each other, strengthening the special identity of the presence. A light-filled hall welcomes, highlighting the feeling of accessibility. Attractiveness and functionality are the project’s priorities and conceived finalities.
