The third project that showed up last week is Shigeru Ban’s Centre Pompidou in Metz, France. While not open to the public until May while the interior gallery work continues, the undulating canopy and exterior finishes are almost complete. A complex glue-lam timber lattice hovers over a series of stacked, cantilevered galleries, and is protected from direct sun and rain by a translucent textile membrane. The positioning of the galleries creates a number of flexible configuration options for new exhibits; and the external spaces covered by the hanging cubes and tent structure allows for various outdoor exhibits and performances. During the day, the museum looks like a white cloud against the horizon, and at night when lit within the complex structure is displayed (a nod to the external structure of the original Centre Pompidou in Paris), and the museum acts as a new beacon for Metz.
