A new access to cultural spaces
The Momentary welcomes visitors through its courtyard, abandoning the idea of a monumental entrance and encouraging a more open and fluid experience. The Wheeler Kearns Architects studio worked on a careful combination of past and present, seeking to preserve the existing structure as much as possible and introducing new volumes through contemporary materials such as glass and steel. This intervention is part of a series of renovation projects aimed at transforming a former factory into a dynamic cultural center. The result is an architecture that combines industrial and modern elements, generating a dialogue between the built environment and the surrounding landscape.
