Project Three Model


The Art Gallery in relation to its neighboring buildings.

An aerial view of the site with neighboring buildings, also expressing the service way passage. Of course, not seen in the model, there will be tinted glass over the main showroom as there would be extensive heating during the hot summer days.

Corner junction conveying the building from the corner of the street. Also expressing how the building comes out and forms a shelter to carry the awing theme of the street.

The public courtyard showing the private section still connected to the courtyard with the stylish louvers to create a barrier and to keep the private are private.

The facade/roof of the building shown here with the main art gallery area reaching out to the pathway. This same concept is seen below.



The courtyard shown with the large tree in the middle surrounded by the private sector and corridor that connects the kitchen, stockroom, workshop and house together. You can imagine on a rainy day the nice view of the rain coming down on the glass corridor from the sides and top as you progress to different sections of the site.

The effect the louvers give in the interior of the private section, this action really reflects Whitehead's theory of the creation of layers that create tension.

Section line shown in model, also reflected in the plans and sections.

House, kitchen, and the entrances of the stockroom and workshop shown in sectional model (also seen below).
