The CFS framing is attached to the primary steel structure with an axial connection.The design and installation teams collaborated with Radius Track Corporation, Minneapolis, Minn., which helped develop the structure’s curved cold-formed metal framing system.
Each panel was tracked within the digital building model from delivery to installation. The project team constructed multiple mockups. Minnesota’s MG McGrath fabricated and installed the museum’s facade, relying on 3D model-based fabrication methods facilitated by Dassault Systemes and Autodesk. The massing of the project effectively merges soffit, wall and roof. “Where surfaces overlap, daylight enters the building and that orients the visitor and marks their trajectory through the museum.”

“The outer skin wraps over the galleries and folds itself to form the walls in the atrium, just like origami,” says DS+R Associate Yushiro Okamoto in The Architect’s Newspaper. The facade breaks into distinct planes, bending and contorting as soffit, wall and roof. The massing of the project consists of four petal-like surfaces that spiral and twist up from the ground, overlap one another and sprout from the center of the structure. Ultimately, the project called for anodized aluminum due to its flexibility, cost and relatively straightforward maintenance. Olympic & Paralympic Museumįrom the onset, the design team envisioned a metallic exterior. Conde Nast Traveler says it is worth planning a trip to the U.S.Architectural Digest listed the Museum among the “leading design-forward museums” opening in 2020 and one of the year’s most anticipated buildings.USA TODAY’s 10 Best Readers’ Choice Awards selected the Olympic Museum as the country’s Best New Attraction in 2020.It’s shingled with anodized aluminum panels and visually rests on a podium of glass curtain wall, the newspaper says. The museum’s rising and twisting geometry is supported by cold-formed steel (CFS) framing, says The Architect’s Newspaper. Outer Skin Forms Walls Like Origamiĭesigned by New York’s Diller Scofidio + Renfro (DS+R), with architect-of-record Anderson Mason Dale, the museum’s design was “ inspired by the movement of athletes,” says The Architect’s Newspaper. The core values of the Olympic and Paralympic movements - friendship, respect and excellence, determination, equality, inspiration and courage - are reflected at the Museum.
