Basic concepts of my design

After three weeks work for the interim presentation, I have got my basic concepts of my design.

My inspiration came from the artist - James Turrell. From his work which is shown on the left image, I got some basis ideas and have used it as the gallery.

The sketch plan showed the building's shape, two rectangles come across each other. The big rectangle is just to suit the site and forms the symmetry, and the angle of the small one is from the line which connects the two trees' roots. And I have engaged one tree in my building, just in the center of the gallery. The hole of the gallery which is about 30 square meters not only can get the sunlight for the internal space, but also can  bring the view, which I have already talked in my intangible - trees' branches and sky image. This is really a nice place in this design in my opinion.

The two corridors next the middle gallery are also a part gallery. This part is double height, two meters wide and with inclined glass roof. And on both sides are two yards, which also bring the grasses into the building. These have showed one of  the concept - bring the natural.

The materials of the building are stone and concrete. I chose stone as the external wall because it is the most used material in this site so this suits the site well,  and stone can also contribute to the concept - bring the natural.

Some more works are needed, and I am doing these now, next post I will show some beautiful images of my building.
