OMA’s design for the National Art Museum of China in 2011 was planned as a city, revolutionizing the way in which museum’s work today.
Like any city, circulation can be efficient and direct – for larger groups – or meandering and individual. The story of Chinese art can be told, or discovered. The main circulation of the city is based on a five-pointed star that leads from the multiple entry points on the periphery to the centre.- OMA on Instagram

I had to think twice or more, but I think my title for this plan works.

Very much so quondam. Thanks for the images. I believe you and I discussed this some years ago. No, there isn't an overlook or dismissal to OMA's own development and vocabulary of this plan. Do you remember one time I sent you my own crude third year school version of the Olivetti plan for LACMA?
Lacma Project, SCI ARC 3b, Summer 1980. Pencil on vellum.
This was before Bruce Goff's Japanese Pavillion and Hardy Holzman Pfeiffer addition, before Ogden St. on the left was claimed by the museum and recent project by Renzo was planned. We were given the site without the existing museum by Pereira. !980 was the thick of pomo in schools and everywhere and the state of the art computers were like this. This was my "hyper" Corbusier in third year vertical studio under great Alberto Bertoli.
Wow! I would be worried that once I entered I would never be able to escape. I love it!
holly molly! Thanks for putting me in quondam.com great page! I am honored!
