Cite De L’ocean Et Du Surf // Biarritz // France // Steven Holl Architects
‘This new museum project by Steven Holl Architects intends to raise awareness of oceanic issues and to explore educational and scientific aspects of the surf and sea and their role upon our leisure, science, and ecology.
The project is comprised of a museum building, exhibition areas, and a plaza, within a larger master plan. The design concept is based on the phrases ‘under the sky/ under the sea.’
The building shape is intended to create a central gathering plaza, open to sky and sea, with the horizon in the distance.
This ‘Place de l’Océan’, with its curved under-the-sky shape, forms the character of the main exhibition space, while the convex structural ceiling forms the under-the-sea shape.
Thus, the concept generates a unique profile and form for the building, and through its insertion and efficient site utilization, the project integrates seamlessly into the surrounding landscape.’

Hiya, I am really glad I’ve found this information. Today bloggers publish only about gossip and internet stuff and this is really frustrating. A good website with exciting content, this is what I need. Thank you for making this web-site, and I’ll be visiting again. Do you do newsletters? I Can not find it.
While I agree with the basics in Cite De L’ocean Et Du Surf // Biarritz // France // Steven Holl Architects | archiCentral , I think the buoyant sentiment around today is a concequence of a false set of circumstances. The demand for consumer credit is still poor and there is no improvement in the housing market. The developed countries are surviving on their governments ability to just borrow and spend into their countries which is unsustainable. Regards, Otha Fragnoli.
