The program for a Museum Pole in Lausanne, includes the Photography Museum - Muse´e de l’Elyse´e - and the Design and Contemporary Arts Museum – Mudac. They were presented by an international competition in Switzerland. By invitation, some prestigious architectural ateliers from all around the world participated, as Kazuyo Sejima, Jean Nouvel and Shigeru Ban, architecture Pritzker Prizes. I was gratified to take part of it, collaborating together with Camilo Studio, Tiago Pimentel and a Swiss studio on building the model of the project solution. Sir David Alan Chipperfield was one of the vice presidents of the jury. The victorious project, “One museum, two museums”, was designed by the Portuguese brothers Manuel and Francisco Aires Mateus. I personally intervened with suggestions and tips on its concept, by resizing, adjusting or redesigning its proportions in whatever way the model itself was asking for.
