Precedent Studies: Tadao Ando
1. Azuma House (Row House)
The basic idea that extracted from azuma house is the circulation- bridge and stairs. A bridge in a gallery will be a good circulations with different views in both sides of the bridge. Also there is another precedent that illustrated this idea very clear in a gallery.
2. Gallery MA toto
From the pictures illustrated, the bridge and appropriate gallery spaces creates a impressive circulation for exhibitions. Also combined with the idea from Azuma house, the lighting condition on these circulation spaces could be a highlight of the whole building.
Precedent Studies: Museum of Liverpool & Pier Head Ferry Terminal
Pier Head Ferry Terminal by Hamilton Architects
I was firstly attracted by the shape of this interesting architecture. This is Pier Head Ferry Terminal in The Albert Dock, which is designed by Hamilton Architects. This ferry terminal is close to the Museum of Liverpool. Two main features interested me: first is the long strip window on the second wall and the structure of large on upper and small on lower; second is the usage of rooftop area, which is a restaurant and is totally open.
In this project, what I tried to apply into my own design is the connection of Art Gallery/Museum and the idea from Villa Savoye created by Le Corbusier. The Museum of Liverpool is an interesting precedent in this project.
