Bank of Chile Museum, Valparaíso
Museo del Banco de Chile
In the following link you can see the museum we built for the Bank in the main office in Valparaíso. The building is of great heritage value for the city. We developed a project that included the construction of a collection and its cataloging, deposits under conservation standards, the production of a script and the empowerment of the spaces on the second floor that the agent formerly occupied to transform it into a museum. To rebuild the space it was necessary to demolish walls, reinforce the structures with metal trusses and transform small spaces into a larger and more fluid space within the building's own limits.
