MeCri Museum began with the dream of a 80 year old woman to realize a museum in memory of her father Aldo Crivelli, who was a famous archaeologist and painter of the southern Swiss region of Ticino, and her daughter that passed away at a very young age. The idea was to refurbish an existing building in her beloved old town of Minusio and convert it into a museum to display the artwork of her father and other artists. After years of searching, our client bought an old house of the XIX century in a protected area and our studio was contacted in 2012 to start on the project; its first step was completed in 2014 with the refurbishment and transformation of the existing building (cfr. Museo MeCrì)
▼博物馆的倾斜屋顶与周围环境融为一体，the pitched roof is integrated in its surroundings
▼改造后的墙体围合出一个内部庭院，the walls after refurnishment enclose space to form an inner courtyard
The extension was planned in 2012 and realized in 2016. The intervention leaves the existing stone walls (protected by regional law) untouched. At the same time it creates a dialogue with them, through materiality and by recalling their existing height and length. As the old stone walls degrade through time, the new concrete boundaries will stand on their place. The concrete was washed in order to create a finishing that integrates with the context. The walls of the intervention define an inner courtyard thought as a void that connects the two parts of the museum MeCrì.
▼特别的切割技术创造屋顶包层与古老石材相结合，the characteristic cut technique to create the cladding combining with the old stone
▼高9米的天窗在屋顶上营造出神秘的氛围，9m skylight crowns the top of the roof and creates a mystic atmosphere
A pitched roof that is integrated in its surroundings, thanks to its form and materiality, covers the new exhibition room. The 9m skylight crowns the top of the roof and creates a mystic atmosphere in the interior of the pavilion. The monolithic mass of the roof is strengthened by the use of local stone as a cladding. It’s a gneiss stone from the Vallemaggia region nearby Locarno and the construction site. It clearly recall the old stone roofs that surround the site thanks as well to the way the cladding was placed; it’s done in striped and the cut was done using a technique that leave the cut part of the stone visible on the exterior (“controvena”). The use of stone allowed us to combine a formal expression which we find appropriate with the functional need of waterproofing the pitched roof.
