Final Project: Concept


Linear Gallery as Overlapping, Intersecting, and Shearing Planes

At its essence, the Linear Gallery isn’t the resultant space of a subtraction. Rather, the space is the result from adding and intersecting three planes. Because it is missing definition on one side, the space opens up and feels lighter. The piers break up the bays, but aren’t perceived as points. The piers have a thicker horizontal dimension and upon entering the space, they become planes invading, breaking up and delineating new spaces that overlap the gallery. I will not only study the form of the gallery by intersecting, shearing, and overlapping planes, but I will also study how this method will give way to the creation of new spaces for collaborative as well as conflicting programs. My logo design uses this idea to spell out the word “Gallery”. It takes the idea of lines overlapping to create and furthers the concept.
