architecture turned into enjoyment and participation.
instead of contemplating the void of the guggenheim museum's central space,
JDS architects have proposed an experience which sees a trampoline net spiraling down
the institution's rotunda. this idea plays on frank lloyd wright's original scenography
for the guggenheim in which he envisioned patrons visiting the exhibition from the top,
downwards.
looking up at the spiraling trampoline net
people can walk, rest and play on the net
the base of the net at the main floor of the guggenheim
