A new purpose for an old industrial warehouse in Filisur. This architectural project transforms a disused warehouse into a refined private archive, where the past merges with a passion for mechanics and racing bicycles.
The lightweight metal structure is reinvented to house an incredible collection of bicycles, creating an environment that celebrates the beauty of design and functionality. The highly functional architecture integrates seamlessly with the displayed works, giving life to a space that is not only an archive, but also a meeting place for friends and enthusiasts. The spaces become dark, and the focused lighting highlights the elegant lines of the frames of machines and bicycles. The project has given life to a lightweight structure that serves both as an exhibition space and a circulation area. This added structure creates a second level that preserves the transparency of the hangar, thanks to the lightness of the steel construction details. This choice allows the space to maintain its visual openness, while ensuring continuity between the different levels.
