FLEXIBLE TOWER

Located in Hamra, the project aims to create an open piazza, accessible from both Sidani and Bliss Streets, where people can access it without having to go inside the museum. The project is a flexible tower, where the piazza is considered animated because it has a direct relationship with the whole surroundings. The building is divided between an interactive part with its piazza and an isolated part from its surroundings, which is mainly the exhibition part. The structure is considered the skin of the building, and it holds technical slabs that contains the different functions. The circulation is independent from the functions. Two systems were created: one that is a U-shaped circulation that takes the visitors to the function, and the other one is organized through one point starting from the ground until the last floor to permit the liberation of the maximum slabs possible.
