Since June 2022, the two museums Photo Elysée (photography) and mudac (contemporary design and applied arts) share a building designed by the Portuguese architecture firm Aires Mateus. The architects' "One Museum, Two Museums" project is located inside Lausanne's new art district #Plateforme10 #lausanne #architecture
The band of windows, that rises from the ground and separates the two museums, creates a large triangular corner window inside the mudac.
The number of contact points between the upper and lower parts of the museum is limited to three, leading to interesting geometric relationships
