Project 3 - Art Gallery, Shop/House: Draft Models

During the design process, a draft 1:200 model was built in order to help understand the visualisation of the design.

Different floors and roof (note that the back end of the gallery and its relationship to the park has not been fully designed)

Project 3 - Art Gallery, Shop/House : Initial Concepts

Yayoi Kusama's works are mainly internal installations, and are very controlled, as opposed to Andy Goldsworthy, whose sculptures are site-specific and usually in the natural landscape. Therefore it is clear that Kusama is very internalised and controlled while Goldsworthy is natural and more free-form.

Artificial vs. Natural
After using this notion and transferring it in regards to form, the idea of Solid and Void was developed. This concept forms the overall design of the gallery.

Concept Sketches

Kusama's gallery is "solid" while Goldsworthy's is "void"
