All of the service area is way too much in my opinion. Plus, Mexico, is one of the most religious countries in the world. This cross actually makes a reference to the catholic cross.. i mean, having this incredibly fancy museum on top of one of the most important hills of mexico city.. and shaping it like a cross? might as well make it a cathedral! Absolutely vulgar.. what happened guys? I used to really like your designs! Exhibition space is one of the smallest i’ve ever seen.. All of the service area is way too much in my opinion.

Well that surely doesn't look like a earthquake resistant structure. Architecture is slowly moving away from the people.

The roof terrace is all there! It is a direct connection to the huge open-public zocalos, to aztec urban design, to the collective perception of open space... it is a continuation of this. In this regard if BIG would not have associated with Rojkind it would have been a simplistic foreign landing-invasion; however Rojkind guided this design to truly emerge from a specific culture. all these comments are so disconnected from a deep understanding of the mexican culture… architecture is not object-forming… for example:

I find it a bit dissapointing thou, because BIG always do something more than what is just needed and this project is the most down-to earth BIG project Ive seen.
