Abstract

Amsterdam’s Rijksmuseum, dating back to the late nineteenth century, served two functions: that of a national museum and a gateway to the south of the city. Over time the need for development has resulted in two entrances, two main staircases and the only joined floor being the first floor. The need for further exhibition space lead to developing labyrinthlike connections, reducing natural light and generally misleading visitors. The intention of this new spatial development is to provide clarity of access, visual links and re-establish the museum’s sense of grandeur. By expanding the old Athletics Stadium of the Community of Madrid it was possible to achieve a 70,000 spectator football stadium to host European level competitions. This extension retains the original character of its predecessor whilst developing a new image for the club. The use of concrete and a unifying roof structure contribute to a new homogeneity that further reinforces this new image.
