The Juan Soriano Museum project was conceived to encompass the broad artistic panorama of its time while promoting and facilitating the relationship between different artistic media, formats, and expressions. As such, the architectural space was not designed as an isolated unit; instead, it was configured as a fragmented, flexible, and open environment that fosters connections between interior and exterior spaces, as well as the seamless integration of performance art areas within the museum itself, rather than relegating them to a separate auditorium.
In response to the significance of the artist’s legacy, it was crucial for us to design a space that allows visitors to engage with the artwork in a playful and exploratory manner. We envisioned a museum that gradually reveals itself—a space capable of transforming with each step of the visitor, enabling the appreciation of the artist’s work not only as individual pieces but also as a continuous narrative, revealing the evolution, interplay, and totality of the oeuvre.
Through our proposal for the Juan Soriano Museum, we sought to create an immersive experience. The fragmented and flexible design invites visitors to explore the artworks from diverse perspectives, encouraging reflection and a deeper understanding of the artist’s creative journey. The space becomes a catalyst for creativity and imagination, where the dialogue between the artworks and their environment is central.
