Project idealized for the Exploratory Sciences Museum competition Unicamp 2009. Structural assessor ship: eng. Ricardo Dias.
Museum as generator of the scientific promenade, a discovery of the existing human being, the scientific exploration. Since it’s prehistoric relations until the noblest human beings discoveries.
The construction is the continuum of the existing one, in a necessary change for the best space exploration. Thus the square is incorporated in the passage to be traced by the visitor and the strong visual relation with the coffee makes possible a new local exploration. From the square born the functional change of the building, changing itself from the daily work to a contemplation and exploration of the human scientific knowledge.
Initially the neutral space makes possible recurrent and considerable mutations. The building is molded to the topography, and thus it makes possible different relations of scales, appearances, meeting and possibilities. Thus the promenade is an experience to be acquired beyond its expositions.
The construction is surrounded by technical galleries that turn possible the most distinct exhibitions, not only for the floor or lining, but also for all the surrounding space of the construction.
The main access is in a triangulated metallic cave, Its structure diminishes the pressure suffered for the action of the winds, beyond create an interesting fractal space.
