Descrição: M+ is set to make a major impression on the global cultural landscape as it takes center stage in Hong Kong's vibrant new cultural quarter, built on reclaimed land alongside the renowned Victoria Harbour. Offering a mix of performance venues, museums and public spaces, the West Kowloon Cultural District (WKCD) is one of the most ambitious projects of its kind in the world. Swiss architectural practice Herzog & de Meuron won the competition for the new M+ building with a proposal described by the jury as a 'memorable design that draws power from the simplicity and clarity of its parts with a carefully constructed internal layout felt to be inviting to the public, with a space that will be easy to understand and navigate'. Founded by 2001 Pritzker Prize winners Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Meuron in Basel in 1978, Herzog & de Meuron now boasts a team of 500 collaborators working on projects across the globe, from private homes to urban redevelopment. For M+, Herzog & de Meuron joined forces with TFP Farrells as its local partner architect, and Arup as an engineering consultant.
