__________________________________________

The project evolves as a new pathway connecting two National Museum of Energy buildings, totally isolated between them.

The project descends into the earth exposing to the visitor an ancient and lost forest from the carboniferous period. The ramp widens and narrows as it goes down into the earth. The various programmatic spaces appropriate the ramp’s wide areas.
