Introduction

ADITYA SAHARIA

Renzo Piano was born on September 14, 1937 in Genoa (Italy), in the wealthy family of construction companies.

Renzo Piano completed his degree at the Architectural Association School in London.

In 1971 he along with Richard Rogers won a contest that changed their lives: the construction of the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris.

ARCHITECT: RENZO PIANO

"Architecture is an artistic craft, but at the same time it is also a scientific profession, it is precisely its distinctiveness"

"When style gets to become a brand, a personal seal, this becomes a cage"

"The architect is first and foremost a builder, but also should be a poet, and above all a humanist''

IDEOLOGIES AND QUOTES

Projects & WORKS

His architecture is defined as solid construction made by excellent materials .

Take advantage of the topography to the relationship between the internal spaces and also to the outside.

Renzo Piano designed a building capable of integrating with nature, in tribute to one of the most prolific and profound artists of modern times.

His Style -

The different project shows how Renzo play with different shapes. He clearly implements that there are 360 degrees, then why just stick to only one.

CENTRE POMPIDOU (POMPIDOU CENTER) PARIS,FRANCE.

In 1970 an international architectural competition was launched based on a program to build a cultural and arts complex in the centre of historic Paris set out by French President Georges Pompidou.

To maximize internal space, they turned the construction inside-out and exposed a skeleton of brightly colored tubes for mechanical systems. The ducts on the outside of the building are color-coded: blue for air, green for fluids, yellow for electricity cables and red for movement and flow (elevators, stairs) and safety (fire extinguishers).

DESIGN & CONCEPT

INTERIOR VIEW

• The center Pompidou broke the mold with its 'inside out' construction: the steel skeleton from which the floors are suspended dominantly visible from the outside, together with the giant external escalators, with the color-coded service ducts exposed on both the inside and out.

• Now that the fact of these appearances is no longer shocking, attention focus on how they are done.

• Twenty years, on the escalator remains a phenomenon, and the plaza continues to thrive, but the exhibition spaces themselves, and the rather dry, regular block shape of the overall building, are beginning to come across as almost a little dull.

PAUL KLEE CENTER

The guiding idea was to create something more than a museum.

Renzo Piano was the lightness of the artist's sense of belonging and light. It was therefore decided to create a place, raise the land, making land available for a work of art itself. As if it were more of a survey done by a knowledgeable farmer, rather than the result of an architectural methodology.So he designed three hills. Three waves that rise and from the ground. With different dimensions, the three waves traverse the ground like a sculpture or the result of the same nature.

Each has a different function undulations therein.The first and larger, a 400-seat auditorium, and art workshops for children.In the second wave, the middle, smaller than the first, is the permanent collection of Paul Klee, and temporary exhibition spaces dedicated toIn the third one, the least of all, lies the research and management.

SPACE -

The design of the Paul Klee is characterized by the structure of corrugated steel deck. These beams have the complex curves neither is equal to the other, since the wave form extends from the front to the back where it is lost together with the ground, and each "wave" has different height.

Each of the curved steel beams with different weights, has been constructed individually.

After reviewing alternative materials such as aluminum, copper and titanium, it was decided to use a hardened cover. The ecological criteria, economic and technical were decisive for this choice.
