The conceptual development of the project started from<br />
an intricate and thorough understanding and drafting of an<br />
overall masterplan, within which the cultural center itself<br />
works as an element within a much larger system.<br />
Drawing from historical research, the genius loci of the site,<br />
and current social needs within the area, the complex programme<br />
of the building itself was derived. The morphology<br />
of the envelope aimed to encapsulate this as well, resonating<br />
with the context within which it is deeply embedded.<br />

An incredibly important aspect of<br />
the project was to have a strong<br />
relationship with the context. The<br />
facade itself becomes a function<br />
of both this conceptual cue, as<br />
well as aiding the programmatic<br />
aspects of the project itself.
