Silkeborg Museum, by Jorn Utzon

Unbuilt project

Silkeborg Art Museum extension
Silkeborg, Denmark

“It will be with a sense of surprise and a desire to penetrate down into the building that the visitor for the first time sees the three-storey building open beneath him. Unconcerned - by stairs and corridors, which normally disturb - the viewer will glide almost effortlessly down into the museum via the ramp, taking him through the space.
Strict geometry will form the basis for a simple constructional shape. The vible curved external surfaces are to be clad with ceramics in strong colors so that the parts of the building emerge like shining ceramic sculptures, and inside the museum will be kept white.”
Jørn Utzon
