Office for Metropolitan Architecture

Office for Metropolitan Architecture and Rem Koolhaas are designing the Prada Foundation’s new contemporary arts centre in Milan, Italy. The plans reveal a vast, 17 500m2 industrial site (pictured above, top), to be transformed into a cinema, auditorium, museum and exhibition spaces. The complex will house large-scale installations, as well as Prada’s archives. Construction work is due to be completed in 2011.
