MAS - Bonapartedok reflection - a photo on Flickriver

Europe, Belgium, Flanders (Vlaanderen), Antwerpen, Schelde, Eilandje, Bonapartedok, MAS (slightly cropped)

Reflection of the Museum aan de Stroom (MAS), designed by Neutelings Riedijk.

One of the design goals of the MAS was to build a monumental and scuptural tower with lotsa floor space that still wouldn´t look massive. The corrugated glass covered ´wandelboulevard´ is one of the things that saw to this and the other thing is the way the other parts of the facade (the exhibition spaces) are covered. These spaces are clad in Indian sand stone. Stones of four different quarries were used - each producing its own specific shade of red. To get a random distibution of these 4 shades across the facade, a computer program was used. The distorted reflection of the Bonapartedok water adds an organic quality to this pattern ;-)
