Key Contemporary Roman Property developments, Italy, Europe

Rome Building - Latest Design Museum of Contemporary Art Rome ODBC image from the architects Museum of Contemporary Art Rome With the complexity given by the introduction of a Contemporary Art Gallery in an ancient mixed industrial building, the project is an opportunity to transgress an univalent attitude of an integration into a historical context. Moreover the Roman historical context is a challenge for this type of intervention. Inserted into the complexity of an ancient industrial estate and confronted to a historical patrimony, our project is resonating to the existing static condition of the site with dynamism, movement and evidence.
