“The architecture for a house of such a powerful ensemble of artists must embrace their outstanding characteristics. The strength of Georg’s artwork, the delicacy revealed by Emaús, the poetry of Konstantino, and the vibrant photos of Eliseo and Isaias”.

With the impressive Chapelco range as a picture backdrop, the 450 square meters Colección Georg perches on a sloping natural landscape.
With this notion in mind, Sidoni’s design features an undulating stonewall, born between two curved wooden walls that appear like flags waving in a breeze. A great cascade of glass erupts through the center, splashing through wood and rock. The dynamism which flows throughout is interrupted by the main entrance, where the rigid volume anchors the building’s fluid movement.
On the interior, spaces do not face each other so much as they interrelate, providing an integrated view through the building. The vertical movement of the glass staircase and transparent elevator create a communication between the visitor, the artwork, and the building itself.
The project was presented in the category “Architecture and Landscape” at the 2012 Venice Biennale of Architecture.
