Location

• The biggest challenge was in finding a way to fit the entire program into an unusually shaped site that stretches from north to south like a wine bottle.

• Although intuitively this would have placed the stage at the back edge of the site, such a configuration would turn the back of the building toward the residential area to the south.

• comprised of one small and one large performance hall

The larger hall, which seats 1800opera performances for the annual summer Saito Kinen Festival, as well as a variety of theatrical performances and other events.Smaller hall which seats 240Smaller local events and citizens’ meetings are housed in the more intimate space of the

1. Lobby connects the foyers of both the main hall and the small hall2. is an area of spacious dimensions that makes it possible to forget the

very narrow shape of the land on which the Centre was constructed.

1. A large space envelop and contain a smaller space within its volume.

2. The larger enveloping space serves as three dimensional field for the smaller space contained it

3. The contained space differ in form from the enveloping space in order to strengthen its image as a free standing volume

4. This contrast indicate a functional differences between two spaces

5. Linear organization of spaces

FINDINGSSpace to human mass relationship

1. Lack of big opening give the mass a solid look.2. Solidness is reduced by the greater curvature3. impressive thinness of columns give highly floating look to

the projected mass

Concept•Traditionally museums•containers that subtly told their use and clearly told how to use them.•had order, balance in composition, oftentimes symmetry and discernible entrances.•I M PEI rejected the traditional notion•experience sculpture in three dimensions by moving around it.•to discover how to enter the building and be delighted by the spaces we find.•does not readily tell us how to use it, how to enter it or what to expect.•in a very different way, tell us that it is about art.•ells us we should look at buildings and art from a different perspective•asks us to explore and question what we think art, or sculpture, or spaces, or buildings should be.•begins as a search for the front door becomes •a journey to experience art and architecture from a new point of view.

1. considered a work of art in itself.

2. perceived as a piece of sculpture placed on a podium that one walks around.

3. difficult to find the entrance – almost forcing visitors to walk around it to experience the structure.

FINDINGSSpatial quality

1. Elevated base plan: A horizontal plane elevated above the ground established vertical surface along its edges that reinforce the visual separation between its field and surrounding ground.

2. Depressed base plan : A horizontal plane depressed into the ground plane utilizes the vertical surfaces of lowered to define a volume of space

3. Over head plan : a horizontal plane located overhead define a volume of space between itself and the ground plane

1. Without any interlocking Adjacent spacesMake the whole project

2. stand free within its site but extend its interior spaces to merge with private exterior spaces

3. the slots of space defined by rectangular galleries 1are modulated by altering the spacing and configuration

4. external voids are used as circulation paths5. spaces are adjacent to each other

1. Stand as a distinct from in its space and dominate its site

2. Stand as a positive form in negative space3. Different mass is grouped as a clustered form4. The unadorned corners of the form emphasize

the volume of their mass5. Parts of the museum are related with one

another in a consistent manner6. Rectangular cluster form 4.Undaorned corner of form

FINDINGSSpatial quality

1. Visual and spatial continuity is interrupted between the form of building and outdoor spaces.

2. An elevated plane define a transitional space between the interior of a building and outdoor environment interrupted spatial continuity
