The story of the Shanghai MoCA is that of an architectural “Cinderella”—an abandoned greenhouse in the park, transforming into a “Princess” of contemporary art. A series of geometric glass volumes were added to the structure, dissolving the predictable form of the original glass pavilion. The diagonally-laid “Mongolian Black” stone cladding over the existing concrete building gives a much subdued yet differentiated expression, highlighted by the deep-recessed stainless steel window frames that are intentionally mis-aligned. A sweeping curvature of glass-and-steel ramp “dances” through the existing reinforced concrete columns in different tangential relationships, allowing for a circumscribed and ascending viewing of large-scale installations placed in the center of the main exhibition space.

这是一个“城市灰故娘”的故事；公园里荒废了的玻璃房，被重建为当代艺术中心。新的设计在不改变原有结构基础的条件下，加入了数个突出的几何玻璃体，来“融解”旧玻璃房原有的外形。外墙以斜著排列的“蒙古黑”花岗岩配合了同样斜列的不锈钢窗框，体现出另一种含蓄却与众不同的外观。弧状的钢结构天桥从不同高度穿过有如树林般的混凝土柱，提供了参观者从不同定点观看大型艺术装置的可能性。
