Interior architecture
Public space as museum
Art for everybody
The transformation of an old grain silo into a public museum, a space where everybody gets the opportunity to show their art. This can vary from graffiti and furniture to statues from students or well known artists.
​
An important part of the concept is free entrance at anytime, just like parks. Because that way everybody can enjoy the art and create new art pieces whenever they have time.
Design
The design of this museum focuses on visibility and routing. There are two routes. One route to walk on your own and the public route, where everybody can join. The two routes are not completely separate, through the use of different kinds of fabrics and semi lucent materials there always will be awareness of the other person. This way the museum creates not only the opportunity to enjoy art alone as well as together, but also shows a different approach doing and enjoying things on your own.
Routing
The red line is showing part of the route which is designed in such way that it has just enough physical space for one person.
The blue is the open route/space where everybody can join.
