볼록한 쟁반은 바다를 투영한다.
역시 스티븐 홀의 작업은
평범함을 뛰어넘어 비범하다.
두개의 아웃도어 스페이스를
나누는 커다란 곡선은 두개의 면이 되어
한쪽은 오목한 플라자 스페이스가 되고
다른 한쪽은 볼록한 형태의 뮤지엄 입구 광장이 된다.
특히 건물 초입에서 부터 다이나믹한
공간감을 느낄 수 있는데,
빛과 이미지로 투영된 다이나믹한 외피곡선은
아웃도어 스페이스을 자연스럽게 혹은 다이나믹하게
연결한다.
이러한 컨셉은 대지를 적극적으로
이용, 반영하는데
대지가 가지고 있는 공간감의 크기를
지형테 투영하여 여기서 얻은 공간의
형태를 여기 뮤지엄을 구축하는
중요한 컨셉으로 적용시켰다.
대지의 적극적인 활용은 장소의
본질을 잘 읽어내는 중요한 작업을 통하여
얻는다. 이 과정을 잘못 거치면

조각품이 나오기도 한다.
The Museum of Ocean and Surf (Cité de l’Océan et du Surf) explores both surf and sea and their role upon our leisure, science and ecology. The design by Steven Holl Architects in collaboration with Solange Fabiao is the winning scheme from an international competition that included the offices of Enric Miralles/Benedetta Tagliabue, Brochet Lajus Pueyo, Bernard Tschumi and Jean-Michel Willmotte.
The Museum of Ocean and Surf will open to the public this coming June 25th.
The building form derives from the spatial concept “under the sky”/“under the sea”. A concave “under the sky” shape forms the character of the main exterior space, the “Place de l’Océan.” The convex structural ceiling forms the “under the sea” exhibition spaces. The building’s spatial qualities are experienced already at the entrance where the lobby and ramps give a broad aerial view of the exhibition areas, as they pass along the dynamic curved surface that is animated by moving image and light.

The precise integration of concept and topography gives the building a unique profile. Towards the ocean, the concave form of the building plaza is extended through the landscape. With slightly cupped edges, the landscape, a mix of field and local vegetation, is a continuation of the building and will host festivals and daily events that are integrated with the museum facilities.
오목한 플라자는 지역자생식물의

대지의 지형이 들어 올려진 토폴로지 디자인으로
확장된다.
Two “glass boulders”, which contain the restaurant and the surfer’s
kiosk, activate the central outdoor plaza and connect analogically to
the two great boulders on the beach in the distance. The glass boulders
can be reached through the main entry lobby, which connects the street
level to the cafeteria and surfer’s kiosk, and but are also accessible
independently through the plaza, which serves as a main gathering space
open to the public.
The museum store is located at the intermediate
level of the exhibition spaces, with direct access to the entry lobby
and the auditorium. The more intimate restaurant and the elevated
outdoor terrace are at the top level of the museum, providing open
ocean views.
At the building’s southwest corner, there is a skate pool dedicated to the surfers’ hangout on the plaza level and an open porch underneath, which connects to the auditorium and exhibition spaces inside the museum. This covered area provides a sheltered space for outdoor interaction, meetings and events.
The exterior of the building is a textured white concrete made of aggregates from the south of France. Materials of the plaza are a progressive variation of Portuguese cobblestones paving with grass and natural vegetation. A combination of insulated glass units with clear and acid-etched layers animates the visual dynamics enhancing interior comfort. The interior of the main space is white plaster and a wooden floor provides under-floor wiring flexibilities.
