Project Assumption

What if a building could come alive through its artifacts?
What if the artifacts were interactive?
What if a building knew you?
What if your path was projected based on how you best think and learn?
What if a building became linked into the urban fabric of a city?
What if it became a vital link to its cultural community?

In 2050 this building will be the Athenaeum of Philadelphia.

Project Statement

Acting both as a cradle of knowledge and a facilitator within the community, the Athenaeum will be a vital link to the cultural loop of Philadelphia.
It will provide all aspects of information to the visitor and member, presenting them in a way tailored towards each individual through a series of technology walls.
The circulation acts as a continuous link through the building, engaging the visitor and member.
Architecture will come to life as people interact with the building.
