Concept

These two buildings arise as monoliths, almost as modern temples, creating a compound inspired by the public areas of historical architectural movements in which the predominant style is the play on forms assembled in the light.

While the Library is a round-based tower that widens as it gets closer to the ground, the Museum, which geometry comes from the rotation and rise of an octagon, opens to the sky.
