Sustainability, inclusion and innovation are the three key words of Grande MAXXI, the ambitious and visionary project with which the Museum paves the way for the future.
A new sustainable and multifunctional building and a new green area
MAXXI HUB will offer accessible storage, exhibition space, classrooms and a contemporary restoration laboratory. Inside this three-storey building glass walls will reveal the backstage activities of the Museum, topped by a spectacular roof garden also accessible from the exterior.
MAXXI GREEN will be a green urban oasis that mitigates local microclimate. This space will host the work of artists, landscape design workshops and educational gardens that inspire a new environmental awareness.
New technologies to achieve carbon neutrality
MAXXI ENERGY is reflected in a series of interventions to reduce energy consumption and move toward carbon neutrality, including the rooftop integration of state-of-the-art photovoltaic panels, LED lighting, the substitution of boilers with heat pumps and the recycling and reuse of exhibition material.
Welcoming, participatory, accessible and inclusive
An integrated system of practices, installations and services for the public based on Universal Design, centred around visitor experience and needs. Objectives include: the removal of physical, sensory and cognitive barriers, on site and online; training of operators and cultural meditators, with and without disabilities; the creation of accessible services; experimentation with Universal Design in museums; transforming the social perception of disability.

For the realisation of MAXXI HUB and MAXXI GREEN an international competition was launched on February 2022 and 103 proposals were submitted by crossdisciplinary design groups.
The Jury selected the best project in terms of integration, sustainability, innovation, accessibility, and technical and economic feasibility.
The team led by the Italo-French studio LAN won the International Ideas Competition for “the relationship with the urban context, the generous and accessible hanging garden with a high architectural value and sustainable tone of the intervention".
