Design Studio 3- Art Gallery Final Model

Final Model- Gallery Space
The facade fits into the surrounding buildings on the street. The horizontal lines and the evenly punctuated windows are used in a more modern style. The skylights on the roof are defined by the central scultural glass element that trancends from roof level through to the ground floor. This brings natural light into the gallery.

Multiple levels link to each other through theses glass walls. The geometrical elements intertwine creating intricate passageways for the visitor to journey through.


The play between light and dark is strong in the design. The underground rooms are cold and poorly lit whereas the upper levels are well lit from windows and the glass courtyard.


Solid elements contrast to the glass centre. These are the thick column that extends from the ground level to the roof , the billboard as you enter and the dividing structure between these elements.
