Taking into account a strong natural context, the project shows a wood skin drawing with a graphic
pattern, composing a generous scale for a “building-sign”, real “Eco-museum” showcase.
This formal intention, in addition to its impact, symbolises the program “Eco-museum” program, real
exemplary teaching tool, this in prospect to a successful environmental integration.
Holding account of the will to use natural materials, we have chosen materials principle “eco-biological”:
The extension of the entrance hall and the temporary exhibition is in timber framework and timber
cladding. The use of “dry” producer allows a management of a clean building site, the conservation to the
maximum of trees and the continuous use of existing buildings in period of work.
Southern side, the timber framework will put down an ecological concrete wall base and tinted in the
mass with natural pigments. Above this wall base, the timber cladding is in natural wood shingles
(chestnut) drawing graphic pattern and cover Eastern side of existing building with panel-insulating
cladding.
