In 2010 we began a close collaboration with the architect Smiljan Radic and the team of Precolombino Chilean art museum for this attractive underground expansion project. The lighting expression was based on the full and empty spaces of the architecture, looking for simplicity and integrating the lighting systems to make them disappear.

The museum project of the "Chile antes de Chile" room began a few years later for which a modular and flexible strategy was designed to allow receive many types of expositions.
