Concept Design for Art Foundation



1st stage 

 During the first week I was basically focusing on top of the coal loader and considering what could be happening there, i.e whether it is merely a garden for rest or something beyond. By looking at precedents from sanna and ito, i developed an early principle concept that experimental art might need to be differentiated from the reality through some sort of form e.g. visual obstacle, enclosure, circulation.

contrast of materiality

relationship between circulation and display

2nd stage 
At this stage I was trying to invent different ways of isolation, consider the relationship between each functional units in a more specific way(the layout of the whole site), and start to think about the architectural form.












3rd stage 
At the final stage I was rethinking about how the scale would affect the spatial sensibility, and did some detail fixing.
