rethinking Peter Zumthor

FREE ENTRY!22nd DECEMBERALICANTE UNIVERSITY

Like Zumthor usually says, every single building has a sound, without knowing exactly why. This is the sound of the empty space, of the materials without friction of people, the breathing of the elements. Everything has a sound, made of its present reality and its future.

In this course, the sound grows from the order, with no place for indeterminacy.

_Bregenz museum

In this project Lacaton & Vassal meet Peter Zumthor, in a hybridation of two projects of each one. Taking extreme importance in the fact that we have to preserve the main character of each building, the final result appears as a union of intimacy and per-meability, bound movement and indeterminacy; following a straight order of priorities about what to keep and what to leave.

In this course, the sound grows from the order, with no place for indeterminacy.

In a first approach to Peter Zumthor´s projects, we highlight the main realities that run the different buildings. First, in the Shelters, the fact that there are a ruins to protect mark the main idea and strategy of the project, then, the collective imaginary of the primitive cabin and the need of enhancing the past atmosphere of the place do the rest. Second, in the Museum, it is evident the symbolism that remains modernism and the layout of the different galleries.

In order to keep just the essential, the elements that follow the rea-lities which lead each project are in both cases: the element that creates the empty box, the one that shifts and brings light in, and the one that allow the movement of people.

Phase 3 Phase 4

Introducing the Shelters and the Museum in perfect cubes, we see with ease how the formal structure of the buildings can change and adapt to different proportions. We don’t lose the idea of tunnel although we have now one box into the other instead of one following the other, for example. In the same way we don’t lose the atmosphere and the way the light filters inside the museum even though the change of scale “Thermal baths” and “multiply” create a new way to understand the same two buildings we have been working with. Without missing the three main ideas: void, movement of light and movement of people; a ritual of bath appears using the repeated elements -issued from multiply- as a way to organise and lead the heat. and the proportion of the storeys.

With the formal and the programmatic displacement, we find the contrasting realities that come from the new programme, and the new spaces that we need to run it, as a result of the formal displacement.

Finally, Lacaton & Vassal appear in the project to bring the luxury of inhabit with the sobriety of materials. The intimacy take different levels and attached structures create indeterminated spaces which let freedom to people to rub-down with architecture and crate new and unexpected sound.

Zumthor is all about order, and his sound comes from the empty and lonely building. He likes the building without friction, just the materials and the wind. With Lacaton & Vassal comes the people, even the noise. Altogether, noise and order, a beautiful sound is created, the sound of the order.
