A Chinese hat spotted in the window of a St. Germain des Près shop is what inspired the shape of  Centre Pompidou-Metz, says architect Shigeru Ban. His cohort, Jean de Gastines adds that he imagined that hat posed in a garden. How to fit a museum under a hat? Jean-Paul Fargier and Stéphane Manchematin show us through the ins and outs of this magic trick, every piece of the puzzle is laid one after the other in an extraordinary metamorphosis.
