architecture turned into enjoyment and participation.

instead of contemplating the void of the guggenheim museum’s central space, JDS architects have proposed an experience which sees a trampoline net spiraling down the institution’s rotunda. this idea plays on frank lloyd wright’s original scenography for the guggenheim in which he envisioned patrons visiting the exhibition from the top, downwards.

Oh my God.

I thought for a second that this was real, and current. THIS WOULD BE THE GREATEST THING OF ALL TIME. OF ALL TIME.
