Aalto Museum Extension

Functional and pragmatic extension that creates a dialogue with the site and Aalto’s buildings by contextual operations adapting to the forces, topography and paths of this very unique place. The space is formed by a folded surface that creates a series of horizontal platforms in different levels connected by comfortable stairs. This spatial configuration enriches the user experience with multiple route options, diagonal views and a strong connection between inside and outside space.
