The Art Gallery Shop has been designed upon a triangular grid. The concept of the triangle was created as soon as we were given the site. Site 3 conveyed a triangular concept as the frontage of the site had an acute angle at the corner. From the frontage of the site a triangular grid was created across the whole site that formed the basis to my design. The roof/facade contradicted, in a way, the perfect order of the triangular grid seen below, and was created with a more free flowing triangular composition as seen in the model photographs and plans/sections. This idea of the free flowing triangular grid derived from Whitehead's idea of free will and the freedom to express yourself through 'the brush stroke'.
