Riverside Museum

It's Monday so it means it's time for a fresh burst of something creative, something innovative, so yes we bring you the Riverside Museum. Now you would think by now we would have grasped the concept that anything architecturally insane and beautiful all at the same time belongs to Zaha Hadid.
The museum is the home for transport, with over 3,000 exhibits and is sculpted by a zinc clad roof. The zig zag panels cuts through the skyline with its 36 metre high glass panels creating what can only be described as a mesmerising work of art.

Plessi Museum

Simply blown away by the innovative architecture of the Plessi Museum. Noted as one of the first museums to be built by a motorway in Italy, the Plessi Museum is dedicated to the life works of Fabrizo Plessi the Italian artist often described as an alchemist for his use of light & sea water colours. It seemed only right that the interior should reflect the work of the famous artist.

Name: Plessi Museum

Brand Concept: To become a symbol to tie the Mediterranean to middle Europe. The complex works at transforming traditional rest areas to consecrated culture.

Materials: Wood & concrete

Discovery: Trust me I'm an Architect
