I spent a few hours to tell the opening of the new wing of the museum Macro in Rome. I am very at ease in the museums of art were born on progetti architettonici moderni e visionari. Mi diverte molto raccontare le persone muoversi all'interno degli spazi museali, non solo davanti alle opere, piuttosto nel rapporto di gestione che ognuno ha nei confronti degli spazi, dei volumi, delle forme, dei colori, della luce, delle superfici, delle trasparenze. In questo senso, secondo me, questa nuova ala del museo si presta benissimo all'interazione tra la struttura e l'essere umano. Come il Maxxi, anche il Macro gioca molto sull'irregolarità delle forme e sull'ampiezza degli spazi vuoti, solo che lo fa con materiali più interessanti, che richiamano alla memoria immagini delle fabbriche degli inizi del secolo scorso e che mettono nettamente a contrasto quest'immagine con quella di uno spazio, in a sense, avant-garde ... Who's around I suggest a visit.

PROJECT ENLARGEMENT
The design of new macro, designed by the architect Odile Decq, stands behind the original structure in 1999 and recovered, with the intention of the designer's objective is to find a dynamic equilibrium through the creation of different points of view and approach to the museum. Areas internal and external are not designed in a static way, but they become dynamic and offer visitors the attraction of a continuous discovery.
The inclusion of the new building designed by Decq, in a very defined at the architectural level, wants to integrate the new structure with the entire city block. The elements that characterize this process are: the 'entrance of the New MACRO place on the corner of via Nizza and via Cagliari with the creation of a dual input from the previous museum (Via Reggio Emilia) and the occupation of an entire block of district, the creation of a green roof covered on most levels that allows visitors that it could have part of a strange city, especially the roof around is also one of the most important architectural elements in the redefinition of the identity of the new Macro and the proportion of the host city.
From the top level of the renovated building in Via Reggio Emilia, you can see the new museum as part of an abstract landscape garden, where the historical palaces of via Nizza and via Cagliari and sloping and sparkling water masses, as outlined the large fountain on the roof, make up the scenes for.
of this new structure over the entrance, paths, ramps di acciaio e vetro, alle suite espositive, (di cui una dedicata alle grandi installazioni) al giardino panoramico è previsto un ristorante situato al livello attico che si apre ,con una terrazza sul tetto-giardino e sulla grande fontana. Numerosi percorsi consentono di salire sul tetto. Il progetto delle facciate su via Nizza e via Cagliari rappresenta un'articolazione e integrazione di vecchio e nuovo. Le aperture e le finestre che si affacciano sulle limitrofe strade che circondano il Museo sono create per evidenziare la permeabilità tra le attività del Museo e la città.
INFORMAZIONI TECNICHE

2,500 square meters of garden terrace used in exhibitions and outdoor space stop
6,400 square feet of parking
1,000 square meters of technical areas that are adding up to 4,500 square feet, existing.
The ARCHIETTO
Decq Odile (1955) studied architecture in Paris, where she graduated in 1978. In 1988 Odile Decq with Benoit Cornette, won the competition for the seat of the Administration Center social and Banque Populaire de l'Ouest in Rennes Armorique, a project which earned international recognition and awards. Produce, then, with Cornette, highly dynamic architectures derived "high tech", including the port of Osaka in Japan, the Research Centre Saint Gobain in Paris and the MACRO in Rome, the latter with the collaboration of Burkhard Morass.
