Abstract


The Museum is located in the far east of Valencia's "Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias" Like a big universal exhibition pavilion, a longitudinal building was engendered from the modular development of its transversal section in all length of the assigned plot. The front part acts like final top of the building, symmetrically with a tensional image of subjection of the different modules repeated like side buttres. The building is configurated like a big roof suported, in the north side, by a glassed transparent front and, in the south, by an opaque one, both adapted to the particular sunny conditions due to Valencia's geographycal situation.
