The architect had a different approach to the structural
design and design of the fayade, but two separated

function. The visual connection between the internal
and external structure is highly appreciated.

The skin is made through a repeated structural element
in the inside (roof) and the outside (facade). The
repetition of a unit element achieves consistency. The
building has a clear concept in its structure.

Under construction view of the woven wood screen
At Home in Aspen
Rumiko Handa
'I hope when people come to the New Aspen Art Museum they will
sense that this building is very much at home in Aspen and could only
live here', Shigeru Ban states in a short essay to visitors included in
the museum brochure. Indeed, the way in which Ban's design fits
uniquely within its context is nothing less than extraordinary. A full
appreciation of his accomplishment, however, requires a study of
Aspen's history.
Aspen, Colorado, home to just over 6,500 people, is an internationally
renowned ski resort in the Rocky Mountains, having its slopes
developed first in 1936. It had been used as a hunting ground by the
indigenous Ute people, before silver miners settled there in 1879. The
settlernent was narned Ute City, but soon was renamed Aspen, after
the abundant trees in the environs. Mining began, a bank opened, a
smeltery was built, and two railroads arrived. The city swelled rapidly,
and in 1893 was the third largest city in the State of Colorado, with
10,000 residents. With amenities including an elegant hotel and an
opera house, the wealthy boasted a lifestyle comparable to the social
elite of any civilized city. Even after the demonetization of silver later
that year, some residents remained, charmed by its remote location,
brilliant sun and year-round natural beauty.
It was Walter Paepcke, a Chicago industrialist, and his wife Elizabeth
who steered Aspen in a new direction. Elizabeth had visited Aspen
before World War II, and in 1945 brought her husband to the scenic
mountain town. The decline of the mining industry had taken its toll:
the population had dwindled to 1,000, the hotel was dilapidated, and
the Victorian houses neglected. The Paepckes however saw serenity
and tranquility, an ideal environment for nurturing the whole human
being, in 'body, mind, and spirit'. Herbert Bayer, once a Bauhaus
master, was brought in from New York, and with other Modernist
architects renovated the Victorian houses, the hotel and the opera
house. The Goethe Bicentennial was held in 1949. Invited speakers
included the humanitarian Albert Schweitzer and the philosopher
Jose Ortega y Gasset. Eero Saarinen designed an auditorium, which
was a large tent structure. Paepcke then established the Design
Conference, the Music Festival, and the Aspen Institute for
Humanistic Studies in 1950. These institutions are still in operation
and well respected. The Paepckes' vision has come to be known as
the Aspen Idea, and today's community continues to pride itself in its
wide range of art and humanity offerings.
,In fact it was with this community spirit that an idea was conceived
for a permanent building to house changing contemporary art
exhibits. The Aspen Centerforthe Visual Arts was established in 1979,
now called the Aspen Art Museum. As the institution grew out of its
original ?,500-square-foot facility, a converted former power plant,
Ban was narned the architect of a new building in 2008. After the first
idea to locate it near the Roaring Fork River was scrapped, and a more
urban and constrained site, at the corner of Hyman Avenue and Spring
Street, was chosen. The Museum opened in August last year, following
Ban's Pritzker Prize announcement in March.
What strategies are available to the architect who intends to design a
museum that fits well for a community with keen interests in arts but
lacking in a distinct architectural style? Is Ban cubic design meant to
be in line with the Modernist works of the Paepckes' and subsequent
times? Just across the street is in fact a box-like building with circular
windows and a wooden exterior finish. Even if this and other buildings
had given the architect some source of inspiration, Ban has dug a
route deeper into an abstract architectural language to create his
place-specific design.
Ban's geometry forthe Museum is an almost perfect example of the
nine-square grid exercise, which John Hejduk developed as a part of
architectural pedagogy while at the University ofTexas at Austin in
the 1950s. There is an obvious connection: Ban studied under Hejduk
at Cooper Union. In this exercise, four intersecting lines are drawn to
divide a square into nine small squares, which provide possible wall
placement. At Aspen, the building's footprint is a 100'x 100' square,
with its north and east sides facing Hyman Avenue and Spring Street
respectively. The Woven Wood Screen, 47 feet tall and one of the five
important design features listed by the architect, forms each facade,
made by weaving thin slats on site (photograph]. 8 mm thick, each
slat is a composite of a plastic core, covered with a veneer of African
okoume wood, which then is treated for durability and maintenance.
The four lines that cut through the square in the Museum are placed
closer to the edges than in Hejduk's model, making the middle areas
larger than the peripheries. Programmatically, these interior walls
separate the galleries from supporting functions, such as circulation
spaces and administrative areas. They also protect the art from
harmful sunlight, while allowing it to be enjoyed by visitors and staff
members elsewhere.
The nine-square grid exercise is further elaborated in Aspen by an
introduction of another set of lines - glass enclosures. By placing a
line of glass immediately behind the woven screen in some areas and
pulling it away in others, the architect has turned the buffer-cumยญ
circulation zones into a collection of intriguing spaces. At the
northeast corner of the building, immediately behind the woven
screens, stands a large elevator, orthe Moving Glass Room. The Grand
Stair connecting the street to the top floor occupies the rest of the
east side. A line of glass, pulled away from the woven facade, slices
the stair's width into exterior and interior sections. On the building's
north side, the sliver of space between the two parallel lines makes
an entry sequence, starting with a showcase window, set back from
the street, an entrance door and a lobby. On the second floor, a lounge
jets out from the gallery, hanging overthe showcase window below.
In adopting the abstract exercise of architectural syntax, how can the
architect achieve a place-specific design? A clue is in the parallel he
draws between the Museum's processional sequence and the skier's
experience: 'It is like the experience of skiing - you go up to the top of
85
a mountain, enjoy the view, and then slide down'. Indeed, for a
museum with no permanent collection, the view is the permanent
feature. On the top floor, the space is freed from the nine-square grid
exercise except from the single wall on the west beyond which lie the
kitchen and the mechanical room. The Wooden Roof Structure takes
over the geometry instead, the open space uniformly into 25 x 25
units of 4' x4' each. A low translucent wall on the south edge,
articulated also into 4'-wide units, hides the neighboring buildings,
allowing the visitors to focus on the view ofthe Aspen Mountain.
Following the edge of the eave, which runs diagonally from the
northwest to the southeast corners of the building, one finds the
Roaring Fork Valley and Independence Pass, through which the first
prospectors traveled to reach Aspen. In a letter to the editor of a local
newspaper, a member of the public shared how much he enjoys the
view from this rooftop. With the highest real estate price in the nation,
it is in fact the first publicly accessible roof deck in the town.
A last of the five design features is the Walkable Skylights, translucent
plates laid in the floorto provide the space underneath with light. In
addition to those in the top floor for the benefit of the second-floor
gallery, there are two, more intriguing ones in the ground floor, which
bring light to a gallery and the circulation/pre-function space in the
basement. Both run parallel to Hyman Avenue at the northern edge of
each space, providing a subtle reminder of where one stands, in
relation to the city grid.
Ban travels freely between Ban the humanitarian and Ban the highยญ
end architect, and in the Museum there are plenty of material
references made to his humanitarian works. Paper tubes make the
ceilings of the stairs to the basement and of the conference room as
well as pieces of furniture. The Grand Stair'S sidewall is made of paper
tubes cut to the thickness of the wall and piled on top of the other.
However, I saw Ban the humanitarian in the ways he has taken care of
the visitors and staff members, in the way they experience the
Museum. By travelling freely between the abstract syntax of a game
on paper and the people's experiences inside the building, Ban has
succeeded in creating a point in the community from which people
can reflect on the complexity of the natural, historical, and cultural
assets Aspen has to offer.
