This small building hosts a permanent exhibition of the works of sculptor Constantin Brancusi. The challenge of this project was to reproduce the exact layout of the artist’s works as they had been displayed in his original studio before he left them to the French government.The atelier replicates the layout, the volume and the light of the original studio, but is housed in a larger, square, flat-roofed pavilion. Glass replaces solid walls to enable visitors to walk around the outside of the studio within an enclosed circulation space.
