Architect: Zaha Hadid Architects (UK)
Spanning over 27,000 square meters, Zaha Hadid Architects' MAXXI is an iconic complex that has been integrated within the urban fabric of the city, to which it offers a new, articulated and 'permeable' plaza, wrapped by spectacular forms. An exterbal pedestrian path follows the shape of the building, slipping below its cantilevered volumes, which opens onto a large plaza. The fundamental character of the architectural and structural process consists in the use of walls as spatial ordering ordering elements. The interior of the galleries, almost linear, are delimited by couples of parallel walls that follow the building's longitudinal movement. Plasterboard connected with concrete walls creates the technical cavity that contains the museum's complex mechanical systems.
