Draped by a sinuous ceramic screen in shimmering peacock tones, the building reveals itself in layers. It creates a defined urban edge, while retaining a playful and permeable lightness of being. The screen strategically envelops the inherent dualities of the project – the built and the open, the global and the local, the official and the cultural, the art and the audience, and the SNCC and the KNMA - into a singular, spectacular whole. Magnifying its mass, this gesture marks the institution on the city skyline and urban imagination.
