[Basel] Fondation Beyeler - Renzo Piano

Synopsis from Renzo Piano's Website

It is a calm building with a simple plan, where the lightness of the flying glass roof contrasts with the solidity of the red stone of the perimeter walls.

The museum consists of four bearing walls running parallel to the site boundary enclosure.

The exhibition spaces are linearly arranged.

To give the art its appropriate value, the choice was made to use zenithal light: a steel framed glass roof with opaque glass north lights.

The many layers of the glass roof reflect the incidence of the sun's rays, creating a diffuse and controlled internal light.

The rarefied architecture of the museum provides the visitor with a space for contemplating the works of art.
