How can modern architecture closely refer back to historical architecture without copying or making flat imitations? My thesis project idea is born out of the discussion on modernism versus traditionalism in architecture brought to the surface by the network Arkitekturupproret. I have investigated this through the proposition of an art gallery building with a big red roof. The red roof acts as a screen where imprints of 3-dimensional fragments from different historical eras are projected. The building has an extroverted outside that echoes of the architectural history of the city of Sundsvall, and the big red roof hides an inside that is introverted and focused on exhibiting art.
