식민시대로 부터 이어져 내려오는 유서깊은 도시공간에
위치한 임파로 뮤지엄, 그리고 새롭게 형성된 루프 스페이스.
박물관 옥상에 새롭게 추가된 임시 전시장은 건축물의 테라스와
정원과 같이 일정부분의 야외공간을 제공하는 동시에
주위에 펼쳐진 돔, 타워, 교회 그리고 이러한 도시를 감싸고 있는
자연환경을 전망 할 수 있는 뷰 포인트를 제공한다.
현대적인 모던함 그리고 외부로 드러난 구조미와
미디어 시스템. 시간과 공간의 대비를 통해 공간은 사라지고
도시만 남는다.

TEN Arquitectos has recently completed the rehabilitation and amplification of the Amparo Museum in Puebla, Mexico. Located close to the city's historical centre, the museum is composed by various historical colonial buildings, and holds permanent collections of pre-hispanic pieces, baroque art and contemporary art.
In their project, TEN Arquitectos sought to modernise the spaces and their museographic script, creating a new way to navigate the space and the museum’s different collections. "By adding a vestibule," state the architects, "we motivate the intercommunication between the collections, but at the same time they can be accessed and enjoyed independently. In the same way, we establish a new way to intercommunicate the museum’s services, so the public and private aspects could be separated and work more efficiently."

Creating spaces like terraces and gardens, the architects took advantage of the museum's vantage points, allowing visitors to know new aspects of Puebla, by opening up to views of different domes, towers, churches and natural landscape around the city.
The project also created more temporary exhibition spaces, and modernised all the electromechanical, structural and media systems, taking into account the opportune maintenance of the entire building.
