The Calouste Gulbenkian Modern Art Centre has been transformed with a curvilinear structure designed by the Japanese firm Kengo Kuma & Associates, clad in thermally treated ash wood supplied by JULAR. The renovation created an innovative dialogue between the building and its surroundings, integrating gardens and urban spaces. The new entrance at the southern vertex and the elegant wooden canopy reinterpret the original architecture, aesthetically connecting the space to the rest of the Foundation. It is a project that deserves to be experienced in person, highlighting the harmony between the modern and the natural.
