An early example of “inside out” design, the contemporary art museum in Paris features exposed ductwork, exterior escalators, and a pop sensibility courtesy of Richard Rogers and Renzo Piano's 1971 plans. Its rooftop restaurant boasts some of the best views of the city.
Richard Rogers and Renzo Piano won an international competition in 1971 to build an “information, entertainment, and cultural centre.” Open since 1977 in Paris, the Centre Georges Pompidou now houses a museum of modern art, reference library, industrial design centre, temporary exhibition space, children’s library and art centre, audio-visual research centre (IRCAM), and restaurants. The Pompidou’s multitude of functions is represented in its structure: It’s designed with clear postmodern influences to be “a flexible container, constructed from pre-fabricated parts.” Escalators and elevators are on the outside of the structure, allowing for uninterrupted floor space on the interior, and an incredible panoramic view of the piazza outside.
