VITRA MUSEUM RE-DESIGN

MY IDEA

My idea is to turn the Vitra museum into a beach house.
I want to have glass walls and an atrium, balconies all around,
Modify the floor plan and turn it to a mansion, not sure how many
Storeys yet, I will be removing different parts and maybe placing them in different
Places or might just remove them completely.

EXAMPLES AND IDEAS











FRANK GEHRY'S BUILDING












The Guggenheim Museum Bilbao is a museum of modern and contemporary art designed by Canadian-American architect Frank Gehry and located in Bilbao, Basque Country, Spain. It is built alongside the Nervion River, which runs through the city of Bilbao to the Atlantic Coast.
The Guggenheim is one of several museums belonging to the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation. The museum features permanent and visiting exhibits of works by Spanish and international artists.
One of the most admired works of contemporary architecture, the building has been hailed as a "signal moment in the architectural culture" because it represents "one of those rare moments when critics, academics, and the general public were all completely united about something. The museum was the building most frequently named as one of the most important works completed since 1980 in the 2010 World Architecture Survey among architecture experts.
