HIMMELB(L)AU presents the new schematic design of their project in Shenzhen,
China. The building will accommodate two museums namely one on Contemporary
Art and one on architecture and city planning. The Museum of Contemporary
Art & Planning Exhibition is developed out of the functional requirements
of a future-oriented museum complex and integrates various innovative
solutions for a modern information center with environmentally sustainable
building systems as well as optimized construction concepts. As dynamic
monolith in the progressive masterplan of Shenzhen the building serves
as urban meeting point in the middle of its new center, the “Futian Cultural
District”. The merging of the two museums within and the reference to
the context of the Cultural Center are also expressed by a twisting of
its dynamic skin – the mutation of a building complex to an “Urban Monolith”.
