Chosen Building
Maxxi conquer Rome
Design Concept i have found through this building is Bending Paths .
I found with her work on this building, she used bending oblong tubes, overlapping, intersecting and piling over each other, resembling a piece of massive transport infrastructure
Paper Model 1 - bending paths
The use of movement comes from her idea of paths being changed bent or manipulated. The model below shows a pathway going one way then suddently changing direction. This model however doesn't show the connection between both pathways but comes across to me as a sense of direction suddenly changing.
Paper Model 2-movement
For this paper model, i have given this concept movement. Creating a path in between two structures. The aim im trying to create is a flowing movement between and also inside structures.

Analysis of the Building
Just from looking at sketches/thoughts of the building before plans were done, It looks like behind the design was not only symmetrical challenging designs but the way it flowed around. Those lines in the pictures above represent movement and flow of the building. This gave her the idea of long flowing sections of the building. Then came the symmetrical challenge whilst expanding her design into a massive national museum.
