Posted March 9, 20214 yr contextually interesting for this: An Eco-conscious Museum Will Sprout From a Logged Rainforest in Mexico The museum, built in the form of a reinvented stepped pyramid, will be located on an expanse of cleared forest, previously stripped bare by illegal logging. by Hakim Bishara March 1, 2021 A planned research museum in Mexico will sprout from rainforest soil as a reimagined stepped pyramid. Founded by the Mexican art collector and environmental activist Fernanda Raíz, the museum will be located on the edge of southern Mexico’s tropical jungle. The structure, designed by Norwegian-German Studio Viktor Sørless and Mexican Estudio Juiñi, will include exhibition halls, art pavilions, and a scientist-run land institute that will focus its research on biodiversity and combating climate change. Called Xinatli, the museum takes its name from the Nahuatl word “xinachtli,” which describes the moment a seed germinates in the soil. ... The museum will be located in a 90-hectare (~2.5 acres) expanse of cleared forest, previously stripped bare by illegal logging. The area will be reforested in the coming years as part of the project. more: https://hyperallergic.com/625412/an-eco-conscious-museum-will-sprout-from-a-logged-rainforest-in-mexico/ (all renders by bloomimages and bloomrealities, courtesy of Studio Viktor Sørless)
