Concept Statement

This museum, inspired by Zaha Hadid, was designed to encapture and inspire all those who enter. The wave and swirl features add movement around the prism-shaped building to provide a sense of movement and create a dynamic feel. The features make guests feel like they're walking into a piece of artwork. The multitude of windows at the top of the prism allow plenty of natural light that highlights the artwork inside. The museum was designed to have the least amount of doors possible to allow its guests to venture easily from one room to other. These open frames also allow the guests to get a sneak peak of the artwork within each exhibit. All of the outdoor sculptures and artwork are accentuated by a floating pavilion that appears to drape over the sky. Overall, this museum was designed as an art piece to be explored.
