Architecture studio Kengo Kuma & Associates has completed the Centro de Arte Moderna Gulbenkian extension in Lisbon, which is defined by a wood-clad canopy that draws on Japanese architecture.
Originally designed in 1983 by British architect Leslie Martin, the existing 17,174-square-metre art centre was updated to brighten its interiors and help reintegrate it with the city.
Kengo Kuma & Associates has largely retained the existing concrete structure but updated it with an extension defined by a sweeping canopy that references an engawa – a sheltered corridor typical of Japanese architecture.
