EXTENSION
FOR THE SERLACHIUS MUSEUM GÖSTA
The new
building is place where there is no
interference with the nice views approaching the Joenniemi Manor and the openness
of the landscape.
The new extension
grows inside the forest. It occupies
the small plot where there is now a parking space. It respect the trees and
look for them to protect itself.
Feasibility
is base on compactness and flexible form.
The
proposal has a sustainable principle
of compact volume as the lees heat looser form. The free form of it contours
allows to adapt dimensions of different parts of the programme and the spaces
functionality
A building
made of interior light is a distinctive architecture that clearly announce a
difference from the massive Joenniemi Manor
The new extension
is organised around the main foyer.
From this central space is possible to walk to all the public parts of the
programme except the café. The ramps connect with travelling
exhibition 1 on the first floor and with the basement with artwork storage and
sanitary facilities. The double height around the connection ramp is a surprise
space where light and views concentrate.
Smooth and close connection between the extension and the main
floor of Joenniemi Manor is one of the principal objectives of the location of
new building.
The
restaurant and café facility, place at the highest
point of the new building is an attractive and luminous resting place from
where views open towards the lake. It
has a wide and nice terrace with far away views.
The sauna is
located on the island as part of a new path around the exterior landscape.
