Leventis Art Gallery

http://fcbstudios.com/work/view/leventis-art-gallery?sort=highlights

A new art gallery with restaurant and apartments for the AG Leventis Foundation, a private foundation supporting educational, cultural and philanthropic causes which promotes Hellenic culture.

The eroded building form is inspired by the vernacular response to Cyprus’s climatic challenges, creating a tenuous play between solid and void and generating a series of courtyards and gardens, both public and private, which connect to the street and the spectacular views to the Pentadaktylos Mountains to the north and resonate with both ancient and contemporary quarters of Nicosia.
