Koutoubia gallery

Commissioned to create a gallery space where users would feel the concept of compressed space, I decided to carry on the sentiment by creating a tight outdoor circulation between the three main interior spaces. Dividing the gallery spaces and the supporting bathrooms and storage space, the walkway leads up to the exterior shaded bench bleacher seating facing a projection wall that would display projects or films. The exterior seating doubles as a pin up location that takes advantage of the natural light that surpasses the oak trees and the hatched fabric. the separation of both gallery spaces allows for demonstration of multiple exhibitions. the four circulation openings all lead to different destinations; lake osceola to the North, the SOA courtyard to the east, the administration building to the south, and hecht residential tower to the west.
