This article from Arquitectura magazine examines the exhibition project designed for the Jerónimos Monastery, exploring both the challenges and potential of its historic setting and the ways in which the existing architecture shapes the exhibition’s layout. It describes the effort to integrate the monument itself as an active element of the visitor experience, using temporary structures that respect the building while introducing new narrative possibilities. The text also traces the evolution of the architectural proposals, from bold, highly scenographic concepts to a more restrained final solution that still maintains a meaningful dialogue with the cloister—reflecting on the role of exhibition spaces in mediating the relationship between visitors, artefacts, and architecture.
