Atheneum of Architecture in Copenhagen

To think of the Atheneum of Architecture we need to define what architecture is and what is its purpose. As we think of architecture as space then maybe the most architectural gesture, highlighting the built space more than any volume, would be lack of it. Maybe it would be a way to also show what we think is going to be a "style" of XXI century architecture

ATHENEUM

Architecture purely as a built space erected at a given plot is disappearing nowadays. We're not designing a building, but an experience. A space of exploration and an involvement . We see Atheneum as a polygon for architectural sensations – and interactive organism through which we explore and examine diverse architectural tools and phenomena.

Athenaeum for Architecture

The spatial form of the building is an image of the content consciously hidden in the architectural shape of the building. The building takes the form of a monument, which becomes a reflection of the civilized development of the community that creates it. Such action leaves free interpretation to the observer.

These three concepts ( EXPERIENCE, SKILLS, PROFESSION) refer not only to the history of the development of architecture, but are also quite modern manifestations of the profession.
