Museum Aan de Stroom opens in Antwerp
A new multi-million euro cultural attraction - Museum Aan de Stroom (MAS) - has opened its doors to the public in Antwerp, Belgium, following a four-year construction process.
Netherlands-based Neutelings Riedijk Architects was appointed by Antwerp City Council to design the new museum in 2000, with B-architecten chosen to lead the interior design. Covering a total surface area of 6,600sq m (71,042sq ft), the museum also features pavilions and a public square, as well as café, restaurant and retail facilities.
Exhibition space comprises around 5,716sq m (61,527sq ft) of floorspace, with the museum collection comprising 470,000 objects on display across four themes. To coincide with MAS' official opening on 17 May, the attraction also made it possible for visitors across the world to explore the museum through an online interface.
